I think I became more productive through not having children. I never really had the desire to have them. My husband didn't want them either, so it worked out well.

I think I've got my business notions and my sense for that sort of thing from my dad. My dad never had a chance to go to school. He couldn't read and write. But he was so smart. He was just one of those people that could just make the most of anything and everything that he had to work with.

My songs are like my children - I expect them to support me when I'm old.
