That's where it all started for me, in clubs and bars, and I don't ever wanna outgrow that.

All I've ever wanted is a nice truck, and that's what I got.

For me, that first album, there was a lot of fun stuff.

We need to take care of people that are out there busting their butts trying to make it; that's what everyone's done for me.

Sometimes I get all the credit, and it makes me feel bad because I'm not the only one out here sacrificing everything. There are people out here on the road with me with kids and families, and they're out here busting their backs for me.

Me and Luke are fraternity brothers. Luke Bryan was already in Nashville when I got to college. He had come back to his old fraternity house, which was my new fraternity house. We met there and just kinda stayed in touch.
