“I grew up in a utopia, I did. California when I was a child was a child's paradise, I was healthy, well fed, well clothed, well housed. I went to school and there were libraries with all the world in them and after school I played in orange groves and in Little League and in the band and down at the beach and every day was an adventure. . . . I grew up in utopia.”
“I grew up in the arms of the gods.”
“I grew up on country radio. You know I'm a sucker for that 'we got no money but we got love' crap.”
“I never grew up. I just got taller.”
“I'm at that place I grew up to leave.”
