More quotes by Lyle Lovett
You have to be really good to get away with smashing a guitar.
Lyle Lovett

Lyle Lovett

Lyle Lovett
I've been lucky to be able to make the records I've wanted to make. The record company has never pressured me to cut certain songs.
Lyle Lovett
The loss of Jerry Garcia feels like the end of an era in the same way it felt when Elvis died and John Lennon was killed.
Lyle Lovett
When you have a solid upbringing and a strong sense of place, that sustains you. My sense of home never leaves me.
Lyle Lovett
If it's not too late, make it a cheese-burger
Lyle Lovett
I've never been ready to do a single thing I've ever done in my life. I haven't been prepared enough, haven't studied enough, haven't known enough. You can never be ready. There's just so much to know.
Lyle Lovett
If you forget the words to your own song, you can always claim artistic license. Forget the words to the national anthem and you're screwed.
Lyle Lovett
Both my parents worked, so I was home alone a lot, and I would listen to their records. They belonged to the Columbia House record club, so they had records!
