I realised in New York that the only people qualified to run the country are cutting hair and driving cabs..
Interviewed by Fallon he talks about who should be running the country, how he wanted to have a room not a hall regarding to his Rock and Roll Hall of Fame induction and how he once was rejected from being a member at a New York City Y.M.C.A.
Watch his performance of “Raised Right Men” and the interview below.
