John R. Told Me You Don't Work

I Taught Myself To Tune In To Another Persons Wavelength, Figure Out What They Were Looking For, And Try To Project That Thing Back At Them.

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

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

I Know It Sounds Corny, Man, But I Like To Bring Folks Joy, And I Like To Have A Good Time. I Know Folks Like To Be With Somebody Who's Having A Good Time. You Sure As Hell Don't Want To Be With Somebody Who's Having A Bad Day.

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.
