John Mellencamp

John Mellencamp
Grace, Mercy and Forgiveness will help a man walk tall. Walk tall!
John Mellencamp
I've just been fortunate to havehad a lot of hit records, though Human Wheels doesn't qualify as a hit record-but it's really the best single I've ever had.
John Mellencamp
There's a young man in a T-shirt listening to a rock and roll station. He's got greasy hair, greasy smile, he says, Lord this must be my destination.
John Mellencamp
I'm not a nostalgic person. I'm not nostalgic about much of anything.
John Mellencamp
Be careful of those who kill in Jesus' name he don't believe in killing at all.
John Mellencamp
I enjoy the pleasure of my own company.
John Mellencamp
If Woody Guthrie set the bar for American songwriters, Bob Dylan jumped right over it. No one I know will ever come close to possessing the beauty of melody and the use of language that Dylan shares with us, with ease.
John Mellencamp
I would never say John Kerry would be a great president. I will say that George Bush has divided us he has filled this country with hatred.
