It sounds like a cliche, but it... you do sing about what you know about. And I grew up in a small town, and I grew up in a place where your whole world revolved around friends, family, school, and church, and sports.

More quotes by Kenny Chesney
People who can't kiss had everything given to them.
Kenny Chesney
Record labels today are much less patient: Artists have a bad record, and they're gone.
Kenny Chesney
Just because I don't sing about the normal country themes doesn't mean my songs aren't country. I'd rather sing about having fun.
Kenny Chesney
There's this emotion we all feel of being overwhelmed at times, feeling that you can't get ahead. For me it's self-imposed because I'm so driven and I'm always going from project to project.
Kenny Chesney
I have friends who have a normal family, kids and a dog, and I think I would blow my brains out. It's fine for them. But I'm such a free spirit, I feel more alive when I've got somewhere to go.
Kenny Chesney
There are only so many hours you can sit on the bus and watch TV or play basketball or whatever we do to pass the time before we go out onstage.
Kenny Chesney
He had a voice that was the truth, raw and unfiltered. You can't get any realer, any more tortured or any more alive. No one can do what George Jones does, and that's why 50 years later, he still stands out as one of the greatest singers in any genre of all time.
Kenny Chesney
I'm glad I took that time to work really hard on the music. I feel the effects of that now in a positive way with my connection with the audience.
Kenny Chesney
I think there is a part of life that I'm missing.
Kenny Chesney
I was definitely born a dreamer. I could never sit still, and I can't now.
Kenny Chesney
I realized that I wanted to get better in every way. As a person, as a friend, as a songwriter, as a musician, as an artist, record producer, you name it.
Kenny Chesney
My life can be insanely complicated sometimes, and there's a certain simplicity that I crave.
Kenny Chesney
So yeah, it's nothing that I'm doing on purpose, I just think that the more records, the more songs that I write, the more records that I make, you're obviously going to fall into a specific style and thank God it's a style that people are into.
Kenny Chesney
Being famous is uncomfortable because I grew up very simply. Everything revolved around friends, family, church and sports.
Kenny Chesney
There were years of that stuff that will never leave me. Never. When the bus turned a million miles - that's a lot of traveling. It's really cool to think about. I'm blessed to have traveled a million miles on a tour bus.
Kenny Chesney
There's something to be said for useless days. You know, those days when you have nothing to do and all day to do it ... Trust me, a beach and a bottomless drink may not cure the world's problems but it can really get your head in the right place. Those are my favorite kind of days.
Kenny Chesney
On the road, in my bunk, I sleep better than I do anywhere else in the world.
Kenny Chesney
I'll admit I'm a workaholic.
Kenny Chesney
I was on one bus with my band and crew for seven years. I didn't come to town with a karaoke tape. I didn't get on a TV show. There were no shortcuts. Anybody who wants to follow my model is welcome to it. You don't want to follow my path.
Kenny Chesney
I don't think I ever feel sexy. I don't think that's for me to decide, if I'm sexy or not.
