More quotes by Loretta Lynn

Loretta Lynn
Write about the truth. If you write about the truth, somebody's living that. Not just somebody, there's a lot of people.
Loretta Lynn
There's always been a man telling me what to do.
Loretta Lynn
You've got to continue to grow, or you're just like last night's cornbread - stale and dry.
Loretta Lynn
I've always been full of nervous energy, but I'm not really as happy as I seem.
Loretta Lynn
If I had a chance to do things over again, I might not start singing. It was my husband Doolittle's idea. He pushed me out there, the booger. And I'm out there now, so I might as well make the best of it.
Loretta Lynn

Loretta Lynn
I don't like to talk about things where you're going to gt one side or the other unhappy. My music has no politics.

If I found out some gal was trying to steal my guy, I'd want to give her a black eye! Instead, I wrote this song. At the time I was writing each song [on this album], you could figure out the frame of mind I was in by listening closely. With every song I've ever recorded, I'm in it. I wouldn't write about it if I wasn't in it.

I had more verses . Owen Bradley said, 'Loretta, there's already been one El Paso and we'll never have another one. Get in that room and start taking some of those verses off.' Yeah, I took six verses off.
Loretta Lynn
It's important that you take care of yourself and blow off steam in the right way. Don't let some woman walk in and say, hey, goodbye! and take your man. Kill her if you can! I'm only kidding.
Loretta Lynn
When all those city folks try to fix up my talking, all they do is mess me up.
Loretta Lynn
You get used to sadness, growing up in the mountains, I guess.
Loretta Lynn
I avoid going through places where there's too much poverty.
Loretta Lynn
I know what it's like to be pregnant and nervous and poor.
Loretta Lynn
Sometimes it's like you're a big pie settin' on the table, and everybody runs up and gets their piece of you. When it's over' the plate's empty.
Loretta Lynn
Mommy smoked but she didn't want us to. She saw smoke coming out of the barn one time, so we got whipped.
Loretta Lynn
When I first came to Nashville, people hardly gave country music any respect. We lived in old cars and dirty hotels, and we ate when we could.
Loretta Lynn
You're the reason our kids are ugly.
Loretta Lynn
