When I started doing music full time, I figured out my job wasn't something I needed to be completely sober for.
-
I like being different.
-
I'm not real good at surfing, and I'm terrified of sharks. That's, like, one of my main fears. Snakes, sharks, deep water, and commitment. I think those are my four big ones.
-
It's been cool to catch up, but I think I'm done with my exes. To be honest, I went out with flying colors on the majority of them.
-
I've got my head screwed on in the right direction, for the most part. It may be turned a little bit to the left, but we're getting there.
-
I sing about the things that I don't have conversations about.
-
I don't sit down to write a country song. I don't sit down to write a rap song. I just sit down to write a song, you know what I mean? And I try to make that song the best it can be.
-
You meet people in the business and wonder how compassionate they are.
-
I'm as honest as I can possibly be when I write.
-
I don't need anything to have a good time or be a hell-raiser. I was born one.
-
I always go to my mom's house for Christmas.
-
If you're going to go out doing something, you might as well be fighting for your country or fighting for your life.
-
Most of my rings are not expensive at all; they're just things that remind me of people that gave 'em to me. And they all have their own stories, their own meanings.
-
I don't try to be somebody I'm not.
-
It's not just music. To me, it's songwriting more than anything. A lot of people say it's expression, but to me, it's more than that.
-
A lot of things in my life changed, but I'm still a party animal. I'm leading the pack.
-
I'm a country guy from a small town, you know, and it comes across as real because it is.
-
A lot of people can be cheerleaders for songs and go, 'Oh, that's great,' and they don't think it.
-
Main thing, really, is I write songs the way I wanna hear them and the way I think the people that come to our shows wanna hear them.
-
I'm not too good at being fake or being somebody else.
-
I don't write about anything I haven't been through.
-
My fiancee's the one that's picture worthy.
-
The only thing that makes me uncomfortable is when people that do drink, don't drink around me.
-
Songwriting has always been close to me.
