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.

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.

When all those city folks try to fix up my talking, all they do is mess me up.
Loretta Lynn

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.
