I Started Out As An Opportunistic Renegade.

Half The Time I Feel Like I'm Appealing To The Downer Freaks Out There. We Start To Play One Downer Record After Another Until I Begin To Get Down Myself. Give Me Something From 1960 Or Something; Let Me Get Up Again. The Music Of Today Is For Downer Freaks, And I'm An Upper.

I Never Prayed For No Money, And I Never Prayed For No Fame. I Said, 'i'll Take Care Of That Myself. You Just Keep Me Healthy And I'll Do All I Can To Try To Turn People Around, To Try To Steer 'em In The Right Direction.' That's The Whole Trip In Life, Ya Know.

I Started Out As An Opportunistic Renegade. By Now, I've Lasted Long Enough To Become Sort Of An American Original Respectable Renegade.

Two Thousand Years From Now They'll Still Be Hearing About Elvis Presley.

I Figure The Oldies Are Real Close To What Rocking Country Use To Be.
