I never expected to be anybody important.
From Elvis Presley
I'm no hillbilly singer.
I'm trying to keep a level head. You have to be careful out in the world. It's so easy to get turned.
Since the beginning, it was just the same. The only difference, the crowds are bigger now.
The colored folks been singing it and playing it just like I'm doin' now, man, for more years than I know. I got it from them.
The image is one thing and the human being is another. It's very hard to live up to an image, put it that way.
People ask me where I got my singing style. I didn't copy my style from anybody.
I was training to be an electrician. I suppose I got wired the wrong way round somewhere along the line.
Man, I really like Vegas.
I learned how important it is to entertain people and give them a reason to come and watch you play.
