I Wasn't Raised To Not Write About

I'm Supposed To Make People Cry, But Not By Manipulating.

My Gift's Primarily Literary. That Being Said, I Ended Up A Musician. By The Time I Made The Bluegrass Record...i'm More Impressed With Myself When I Push The Envelope Musically Than I Am When I Push It Literality.

I Wasn't Raised To Not Write About Issues, And I'm Just Living In Really Politically Charged Times. You Know, I'd Rather Write Songs About Girls, But It's Just Hard To Do Right Now.

I Was Born On This Mountain, This Mountains My Home, She Holds Me And Keeps Me From Worry And Woe.

Having A Child At 55... That's Optimism.
