Truth is like the sun. You can shut it out for a time, but it ain't goin' away.

I hope I didn't bore you too much with my life story.
The next thing I knew, I was out of the service and making movies again. My first picture was called, GI Blues. I thought I was still in the army.
Rock and roll music, if you like it, if you feel it, you can't help but move to it. That's what happens to me. I can't help it.'
