I never could stand no silence. I always got to have some music
going on in my head somewhere. It keeps things balanced. Music will do that. It fills things up. The more music you have
in the world, the fuller it is. I can agree with that.
I got to have my music too. White folk
don't understand about the blues. They hear it come out,
but they don't know how it got there. They don't understand
that that's life's way of talking. You don't sing to feel better. You sing 'cause
that's a way of understanding life. The blues help you
get out of bed in the morning. You get up knowing you ain't alone. There's something else in the world. Something's been added by that song. Mmm
