America Was Founded On The Backs Of

The Truth That I Am Seeking Is In Your Missing File.

My Best Songs Were Written Very Quickly. Just About As Much Time As It Takes To Write It Down Is About As Long As It Takes To Write It...in Writing Songs I've Learned As Much From Cezanne As I Have From Woody Guthrie...it's Not Me, It's The Songs. I'm Just The Postman, I Deliver The Songs...i Consider Myself A Poet First And A Musician Second. I Live Like A Poet And I'll Die Like A Poet.

I'm Good With Songs I Haven't Written, If I Like Them. I'm Glad I Didn't Write Any Of Them. I Already Know How They Go, So I Have More Freedom With Them. I Understand These Songs. I've Known Them For 40 Years, 50 Years, Maybe Longer, And They Make A Lot Of Sense. So I'm Not Coming To Them Like A Stranger.

You Know, The Streets Are Filled With Vipers Who've Lost All Ray Of Hope You Know, It Ain't Even Safe No More In The Palace Of The Pope

In Songs, You Have To Tell People About Something They Didn't See And Weren't There For, And You Have To Do It As If You Were.
