When A Single Mom Goes

Deep Down, I'm Just A West Virginia Hillbilly.

You Think Back To Tele Players, And James Burton Was The One Who Started It All. He Inspired Roy Nichols (guitar For Merle Haggard & The Strangers), Don Rich (guitar For Buck Owens & The Buckaroos), And Guys Like That To Push The Envelope And Expand On That Sound... I Really Identify With That Kind Of Thinking ... Those Guys To Me Are The Reason Why Any Of Us Do This.

As A Guitar Player, It's Harder For Me To Impress Somebody Than It Is To Write A Song That They Like.

I Try To Write Like The Writers I Admire - I Rip Them Off In Form. It Comes From George Strait And Merle Haggard Records, And Country Music In General Is Really Good At That, The Twisted Phrase... So Im Always Looking For That Angle In My Own Work.

I Can Fall In And Out Of Love, Have Marriages That Barely Last A Month. When They Go Down The Drain, I'll Blame It On The Fame.
