John Mellencamp

John Mellencamp
Grace, Mercy and Forgiveness will help a man walk tall. Walk tall!
John Mellencamp
Be careful of those who kill in Jesus' name he don't believe in killing at all.
John Mellencamp
I know there's a balance, I see it when I swing past.
John Mellencamp
With no bottom line, it's hard to know wrong from right. But I ain't ever satisfied.
John Mellencamp
You shouldn't even be in a band if you can't play Buddy Holly's Not Fade Away.
John Mellencamp
It's my responsibility as a singer-songwriter to report the news.
John Mellencamp
Don't ever lose that innocent laughter, don't let time take that away
John Mellencamp
I'm not a nostalgic person. I'm not nostalgic about much of anything.
John Mellencamp
