Loretta Lynn

I get along with all the women singers, but especially Dolly Parton. We talk the same hillbilly language.

I didn't know how babies were made until I was pregnant with my fourth child.

When I'd tell people I like country music they'd get this look on their faces. People were kind of ashamed of country.

I write about the men you want to read about but don't necessarily want to be married to.

I'm a working stiff, baby, just like everybody else.

I studied international relations and economics at the University of Virginia. I paid my way by working as a bartender in the summer and at three part-time jobs during the year.
