Drunken Talk Isn’t Meant To Be Printed

I Was Born With Music Inside Me. That's The Only Explanation I Know Of

I'm Not Into The Money Thing. You Can Only Sleep In One Bed At A Time. You Can Only Eat One Meal At A Time, Or Be In One Car At A Time. So I Don't Have To Have Millions Of Dollars To Be Happy. All I Need Are Clothes On My Back, A Decent Meal, And A Little Loving When I Feel Like It. That's The Bottom Line.

I Think That Most Great Artists Who Are Extremely Known, As I Am, Would Intimidate A Lot Of People. I Don't Want To Do That To People, But I Know I Do.

What I've Got To Live Up To, Is Being Myself. If I Do That, The Rest Will Take Care Of Itself.

[on His Heroin Addiction:] I Did It To Myself. It Wasn't Society...it Wasn't A Pusher, It Wasn't Being Blind Or Being Black Or Being Poor. It Was All My Doing.
