You Gotta Laugh And Love And Take

I Have Major Respect For Kenny Chesney And Carrie Underwood And Sugarland. They Are Wonderful. They're Superstars In The Music Business.

When Somebody Says To You The Real Usc Is In L.a., Tell Them We Were A School Before They Were A State.

I Don't Think I Get The Respect As A Singer. With This Record, I Wanted To Bring Respect To My Band.

When I Was Asked If I Wanted To Perform On The Grand Ole Opry, I Yelled, 'are You Kidding Me?' I've Been Waiting For That My Whole Life. To Be Invited Where So Many Of The Greatest Country Artists Have Performed Is An Honor, And I Still Can't Believe It Has Been Bestowed On Me. Just To Stand In The Circle Where So Many Greats Have Stood-hank Williams, Kitty Wells, I Just Couldn't Believe It.

I Just Wanted To Go Out And Make A Record That Ive Always Wanted To Make Since I Was A Kid.
