I Can Say That I Don't See

My Mother Is A Very Fun-loving Person. She Has Been Through A Lot In Her Life. She Has Had A Couple Of Divorces. When I Was In High School She Was A Single Mother. That's When I Learned To Do My Own Laundry.

I Was On One Bus With My Band And Crew For Seven Years. I Didn't Come To Town With A Karaoke Tape. I Didn't Get On A Tv Show. There Were No Shortcuts. Anybody Who Wants To Follow My Model Is Welcome To It. You Don't Want To Follow My Path.

I'm Glad I Took That Time To Work Really Hard On The Music. I Feel The Effects Of That Now In A Positive Way With My Connection With The Audience.

In 21 Years There Are A Lot Of Ups And Downs. There Are Melancholy Times. There Are Sad Times. There Are Happy Times. There Are Unsure Times. There Are Life Lessons.

My Elementary School Is Still There [in Luttrell, Tennessee]. I Drop By My High School. It's A Small Community. I Say This Every Night Before I Do The Song 'the Boys Of Fall' In The Show - I'm Really Happy About Where I Grew Up And How I Grew Up.
