I've written many extra verses to songs that I learned to sing - an extra verse about a friend, or just add some verse - and that led to writing my own songs.

I told my father I wanted to play the banjo, and so he saved the money and got ready to give me a banjo for my next birthday, and between that time and my birthday, I lost interest in the banjo and was playing guitar.

Looking out at the road rushing under my wheels. Looking back at the years gone by like so many summer fields.

I let her do some of my laundry and she slipped in a few meals in between, and next thing I remember, she was all moved in.

Very often it's really inconvenient - who you fall in love with. You can't really control it.

I never was a very good singer.

So I had a couple of years of playing trumpet. I really enjoyed it, but it was not the kind of instrument you could whip out at a party. Let's face it.

I want to know what became of the changes we waited for love to bring/Were they only the fitful dreams of some greater awakening?

No matter how close to yours another's steps have grown, in the end there is one dance you'll do alone.
