Even As A Little Child,

And As I Started Reaching Deeper I Realized That Most Of The Blues Of That Day Was Done By Men. Women Just Didn't Have The Nerve.

A Few Years Ago, I Thought, I'll Never Make It. I Started To Go To The Doctor To Help Me Lose Weight.

I Am So Happy That I Am Alive And Can Walk.

When I'm Performing For The People, I Am Me, Then. I Am That Little Girl Who, When She Was Five Years Old, Used To Sing At Church. Or I'm That 15-year-old Young Lady Who Wanted To Be Grown And Wanted To Sing And Couldn't Wait To Be Smokin' A Cigarette, You Know?

I Don't Care Who's Playing. Even If It's My Favorite Artist, I'm Probably Not Gonna Go And See Him.
