Kenny Chesney Song Quotations

Social topics may hit too close to home for people, but then again, if you pull a heartstring, then that's what country music is. It's not just songs about getting drunk and leaving your girl.

I can't believe that I get to stand on the stages I stand on every summer, and get to sing the songs that I sing.

I love the fact that I can go out there on stage with a guitar and sing a song that means something to somebody.

I remember making up songs in my head.

I was at the Academy of Country Music Awards and my first record had just come out. Buck Owens walked up to me, told me he really liked my record and said, 'I believe in your talent. I believe you're three minutes ? one hit song ? from being a big star and finding your own path.' Well, two years ago, Buck walked over to me and said, 'It looks like you got those three minutes, didn't you?' You found six, nine, 12 and 15 of them.' And he told me he was proud of me.

wrap the rest of the album around, a song so universally identifiable that it would make the album have more of a foundation.

When she brought that song to me, I felt like I had something to wrap the rest of the record around, ... Who You'd Be Today was the universal song that I didn't have that I now had, and I was able to go from there and find a few other things that were pieces of the puzzle.

Everything gets hotter when the sun goes down.

Don't that make you wanna fall in love Don't that look like a picture of us A match made in heaven if there ever was Don't that make you wanna fall That just makes me wanna give you my heart Ever forever needs a place to start Gotta be a sign from up above Don't that make you wanna fall in love

No one can make me cry Make me laugh Make me smile Or drive me mad like she does

Her little ring is a little thing, but its all I could afford Now she's mine, all mine till the day I die, and I never wanted nothin' more

Early on I was just a kid in a cowboy hat with a bunch of other guys in a room that were putting out some records. Now thank God, in the past 3 or 4 years, when.. it's really hard to burn an image of a face with a song these days. I think that the songs like 'Don't Happen Twice' and 'Young' were songs that helped me do that and I think that 'I Go Back'(did) that even more.

As a songwriter, you're never off - for me, anyway. There's a certain mentality of people that decide, "Oh, we're going to try to write songs from this time of the day to this time of the day." Almost treat it like a real job. I can't do that. I've never been able to write songs like that. You never know when something creative is going to hit you, or emotion or whatever. You can take it, and turn it into something that makes somebody feel something. I love that about my job.

So yeah, it's nothing that I'm doing on purpose, I just think that the more records, the more songs that I write, the more records that I make, you're obviously going to fall into a specific style and thank God it's a style that people are into.

We don't have to miss each other, come over We don't have to fix each other, come over We don't have to say forever, come over You don't have to stay forever, come over

Every Christmas my hometown radio station would always play 'Christmas In Dixie' by Alabama. I always remember lovin' that song.
