More quotes by Alan Jackson
What I enjoy doing more than anything is, I have my little antique car collection, and when the weather is pretty I like to get out one of my old cars. I have a little route I run down in the country, down Nachez Trace Parkway. The loop down through there is just really relaxing, not much traffic.
Alan Jackson
To me, songwriting is the backbone of Nashville. Looks can go, fads can go, but a good song lasts forever.
Alan Jackson
When I was in high school, I don't know that I really had big dreams.
Alan Jackson
You think a lot of people get to be big stars and get a little crazy, but most of the ones I've ever met have always been surprisingly normal, and I've enjoyed that.
Alan Jackson
If you can last until you're 40 years old, hopefully you'll be mature enough to figure out the rest of the years.
Alan Jackson
I think I've always approached making albums pretty much the same way. I'm just looking for a mixture of songs and topics that aren't the same thing over and over.
Alan Jackson
Did you stand there in shock at the sight of that black smoke risin' against that blue sky? Did you shout out in anger, in fear of your neighbor or did you just sit down and cry?..
Alan Jackson

Alan Jackson
There's no hall of fame for that working class hero, no statue carved out of stone. And his greatest reward is the love of a woman and his children.
Alan Jackson
I've had several working-man songs that I like.
Alan Jackson
My mother kept asking me, When are you going to do a gospel album? And I've always wanted to do a gospel album. Everybody was going on about it, so mom started hounding me more.
Alan Jackson
I always try to make the music that I like and think my fans will like.
Alan Jackson
If anything good came out of 9/11, to me, was that people were so cynical about the world - all you hear about on the news is all the bad stuff everyday, but what was refreshing to me was after that, you saw how many good people there are out there. For every one bad one, there's a thousand good ones.
Alan Jackson
I don't like politics, hypocrites, folks with poodles.
Alan Jackson
Pour me something tall and strong, make it a Hurricane before I go insane. It's only half past twelve but I don't care, it's 5 O'clock somewhere.
Alan Jackson
I've always said that if you have songs on the radio and get played, you've got to have a tour to support that.
Alan Jackson
Love is stolen in the shadows of the night. Though it's wrong all along, it keeps going on as long as they keep it out of sight.
Alan Jackson
I've always stood up for country music.
Alan Jackson
