(Night Time Is) The Right Time. |
[Dear B.E.: The song is] Night Time Is the Right Time, ... Ray Charles: Ultimate Hits Collection. |
[Georgia on his mind: After watching] Ray, ... Georgia on My Mind. |
Affluence separates people. Poverty knits 'em together. You got some sugar and I don't; I borrow some of yours. Next month you might not have any flour; well, I'll give you some of mine. |
Do it right or don't do it at all. That comes from my mom. If there's something I want to do, I'm one of those people that won't be satisfied until I get it done. If I'm trying to sing something and I can't get it, I'm going to keep at it until I get where I want it. |

I never considered myself part of rock 'n' roll. My stuff was more adult. It was more difficult for teenagers to relate to; my stuff was filled with more despair than anything you'd associate with rock 'n' roll. Since I couldn't see people dancing, I didn't write jitterbugs or twists. I wrote rhythms that moved me. My style requires pure heart singing. |
I never wanted to be famous. I only wanted to be great. |
I still sit and wonder, how can we have war in these times? |
I Walk the Line. |
