If I could just touch the hem of His garment I know I'll be made whole

I say, as a singer grows older, his conception grows a little deeper, because he lives life and he understands what he is trying to say a little more. And I think this gives. If a singer tries to find out what's happening in life, it gives him a better insight on telling the story of the song he is trying to sing.

Don't know much about history Don't know much biology.

I'm gonna sing, and I'm going to make me a lot of money.

Man, if I was back home, I'd be swinging with two chicks on my arms.

It was something I enjoyed doing and decided to give it a couple years, though I'm not making a lot of money now either!

Shakin' like a bowl of soup and make your body loop-de-loop.

It’s been too hard living, but I’m afraid to die. ‘Cause I don’t know what’s up there, beyond the sky.

You know, I'll always be your slave 'til I'm buried, buried in my grave.

Don't know much about history, don't know much biology, don't know much about a science book, don't know much about the French I took.

It's been a long time coming. But I know a change is gonna come

Another fella told me, he had a sister who looked just fine. Instead of being my deliverance, she had a strange resemblance to a cat name of Frankenstein.

I was born by the river, in a little tent, and just like the river I've been running ever since.
