When A Man Carries A Gun All

I Wanted To Prove That I Could Play Something Else, But There Were 249 Episodes Out There Of 'mayberry,' And It Was Aired Every Day. It Was Hard To Escape.

I Was Baptized Alongside My Mother When I Was 8 Years Old. Since Then, I Have Tried To Walk A Christian Life... And Now That I'm Getting Older, I Realized That I'm Walking Even Closer With My God.

I Still Play That Guitar. It's A Martin D-18 With A Clear Pick Guard. I've Played That Guitar On And Off My Tv Shows For Nearly 50 Years.

I Am Proud Of Being A Southerner. I Wasn't About To Let Southerners On My Show Be Stupid Or Aw-shuckses Who Just Sit On The Front Porch And Spit In The Yard. I Wasn't About To Do That, And I Made That Very Clear From The Start. I Was Kind Of The Gate-keeper On That Stuff.

I'm Not Really Wise. But I Can Be Cranky.
