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
I love living my life in flip-flops. I met a guy in the islands a while ago who told me he hadn't worn a pair of shoes in three years! I thought, 'Man, that's the life!'
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
I truly believe that music is the most powerful thing we have.
Kenny Chesney
My fans get enough politics on TV every day. I want them to think for themselves. I don't want them to listen to me.
Kenny Chesney
I've been in the music business for 15 years. I've seen it all, man. I've just always been scared of coke. When I was on the road and saw some people do it, I was afraid I would really like it. I was afraid of the consequences.
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
One of these days we're gonna have to grow up, have to get real jobs and be adults, someday, just not today.
Kenny Chesney
Its five o'clock some where
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
It's very hard for me to relax.
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 do sing about drinking, but it's in a party way. I don't sing about drinking in a drowning-my-sorrows way, like in George Jones's If Drinking Don't Kill Me (Her Memory Will).
Kenny Chesney
I want there to be a level of respect between everybody.
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
First and foremost, I consider myself a songwriter.
Kenny Chesney
had no excuses for the things that we'd done, we were brave, we crazy, we were mostly young.
Kenny Chesney
When I'm onstage I just want to feel as comfortable as I possibly can.
Kenny Chesney
I can stay on my boat for a few weeks if I have a guitar and a girl and a Bob Marley CD. After that, I've got to move around.
Kenny Chesney
It's tough enough to have a relationship, and it hurts enough to have it not work.
Kenny Chesney
