Born in a little asbestos-sided house on Fair Drive, Knoxville. Went to Inskip School
Moved to Nashville when I was 13. Graduated from Glencliff High School
Uncle Sam came and got me and made me live in North Carolina where I ended up staying. Now, I've lived in NC longer than I did in TN.
Still go back to TN regularly to see my mama in Crossville.
