People Will Use You As

All Of My Brothers And Sisters Are Very Talented. They All Sang All Right.

I Feel Fortunate That I've Had A Lot Of Songs Recorded By Other People, Because I Take My Songwriting Very Seriously. It's Only Those People That Have Followed Me Over The Years And Really Know My Work That Know How Serious I Am About All Of It - Including The Way I Look. You Can't Take My High Heels From Me, You Can't Have My Long Fingernails, You Can't Take All This Hair From Me, Because It's Part Of This Thing That I've Become. I Wouldn't Want To Give Any Of It Up. Do I Have To Be Ugly To Be A Songwriter? This Is The Way I Am, And It's What I Choose To Be.

I Want To Be Like One Of Those Little Fainting Goats That Get Scared And Then Just Fall Over. I Want To Go And Go And Then Drop Dead In The Middle Of Something I'm Loving To Do. And If That Doesn't Happen, If I Wind Up Sitting In A Wheelchair, At Least I'll Have My High Heels On.

I Used To Always Sit In Church Looking Out The Windows At The Boys, Wondering If I Could Make An Excuse To Go Out And, You Know, Go To The Bathroom Because All The Outdoor Toilets. But Anyhow, I Was Only Going Out To See The Boys.
