More quotes by Alan Jackson

Alan Jackson
Tonight I'm the designated drinker.
Alan Jackson

Alan Jackson
Faith, hope, and love are some good things He gave us but the greatest is love

The fan base that I've had all these years has come along. Some of them are not as plugged into the digital world, so they want to go out and buy the CD at Walmart or something.
Alan Jackson
I didn't realize until I was older what a huge music fan my daddy really was, and actually that my grandma played banjo at one time, and I didn't even know that until a year or two ago.
Alan Jackson
I'm usually just enjoying life.
Alan Jackson
I think every album you have, especially if it's done well, you feel like you're competing with yourself.
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

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 grew up with nothing, so whenever I got to where I could have something I felt like I needed to have everything I couldn't have when I was young.
Alan Jackson
I always try to make the music that I like and think my fans will like.
Alan Jackson
He's written some great songs. I thought that Blues Man was a perfect song for me to do as a tribute.
Alan Jackson
I don't write all my stuff. Everybody always thinks that. But in just about every album I've ever had has been about 50-50 songs I've written or co-written and other people's songs.
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
You have to be tough-skinned and willing to accept criticism, and at the same time, just try to do music that you like and you are proud of and not just whatever you think it's going to take to get you on the radio.
Alan Jackson
A lot of times when songwriters get together and write a song... somebody will come in with a hook and a lot of times they come out with something that sounds a little crafty.
Alan Jackson
