Her message is simple, women either your man respects you or you kick his ass out. That message is true even more today.

Loretta Lynn holds the record for the greatest number of songs banned from public radio. She was singing about real life issues at a time when things like that were not talked about. Loretta Lynn was way ahead of her time

She was married to her husband "Doolittle" when she was only 13 years old. He was a rounder who loved to drink and fight. An urban legend (myth or truth depending on who is telling it) says that he once slapped Loretta around, and Conway Twitty said if he ever laid another hand on her it'd be the last thing he ever did. That's when country was based on real hard living, not this pop-lite stuff they have now.

Loretta is the epitome of Country music. She's as Country as it gets.

“There is not a person in the music industry who does not feel like Patsy Cline and Loretta Lynn blazed a trail for the rest of us to follow.” - Dolly Parton

Loretta was just asking for some R-E-S-P-E-C-T. Right on, Loretta!

If you get a chance to see the movie about here life, "Coal Miner's Daughter", you'll see why she wrote so many of these GREAT songs!

You got it exactly! Her husband wants to go out drinking with the boys and doesn’t give a thought to her. Then he comes home all sloppy drunk and wants to get it on. Loretta ain’t got time for that! If you want to go out with Loretta, take her out. Buy her dinner and maybe even a drink or two. But don’t leave Loretta at home wondering where you are. As you said, Loretta don’t play!

Keep in mind when this came out there wasn't the social norms we have today, this song caused a riff cause women never spoke these things then. She was truly a ground breaker in the beginning of roles in the home changing.

Most of the time we men have to slink off into the garage when we know a song by Loretta is cued up. . .(LOL)

Rest in peace to the Queen of country music.

Loretta wrote all her songs about "Doo", her husband since she was 14! And you right, she didn't put up with his sh**! 💙😉🎼💋

Lorretta Lynn is as genuine as you can get!

Glad you are continuing your journey through Loretta Lynn's music. This country legend is a singer song writer who's music has spanned 6 decades. She was also friends with the great late Patsy Cline. Her younger sister Crystal Gayle also is a great singer. She grew up dirt poor & stayed humble & true to her roots. The autobiographical movie "Coal Miner's Daughter" is worth looking at.

You really need to watch Coal Miner's Daughter. Many of her songs came from her personal life. Loretta hand picked Cissy Spacek to play her and Cissy actually did her own singing. It was some of her best work. I think you would love the movie and learn about Loretta's life. She has had a lot of tragedy in her life.

Before she was famous they lived in Washington and he would leave to go drinking while she had to stay home with the kids. She didn’t leave the house for years.

Daaaaaaaaaaayyyyuuuuum .... Ms Loretta was NOT for the shenanigans!!

A lot of her songs were written from true life experiences

Doo was a hard drinking man. He loved Loretta but he had problems. She gets her songs from her own life. Please check out her sister Crystal Gayle. She has had a lot of country music success herself. Two of her best are YOUR OLD COLD SHOULDER AND DON'T IT MAKE MY BROWN EYES BLUE. 💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖

Loretta's grand daughter Tayla Lynn is phenomenal, she does a lot of covers of her grandma's song. I think y'all would love her!

Another great one is Your Squaw Is On the Warpath tonight!

Loretta Lynn is the strongest woman I’ve ever heard of !! She went through a lot in her life ! She lives in a haunted house . She lost her son jack . Just look her up . You should watch her biography/ documentary. You’ll see how everything began . Thank you guys for doing these videos! Her songs remind me of what I’ve been through too ! I can relate to almost every song she wrote . Keep doing what you do 😀

RIP Loretta, you'll always be a legend

She put out a song after her husband died called I Can't Hear The Music. Great song. Give it a listen. They had a very turbulent marriage, but they loved each other very much! She says their marriage was "a hard love story".

"your squaw is on the warpath tonight" and one of my favorites "ones on the way" should be next, great reaction guys. I just remembered a great one by Loretta called "if you're looking at me, your looking at country" one of her biggest.

Loretta was ahead of the times. On an awards show. She was told she couldn't speak to Charlie Pride on stage or shake his hand or something like that because he was bkack. She wasnt having it and i can't remember exactly but she either hugged him and stood with him. There is a video of them on the stage together. When i heard her tell the story in an interview I loved her even more.

Loretta's hubby Doo was famous for going bars other women ,so if he out there playing the field and you home with babies I'd get a lil ticked too

"One's On the Way" is another great song.

Lorretta wrote songs from the heart and life experince.. this woman paved the way for women today in country... Loretty did it all ..

Loretta did a great version of These Boots Are Made For Walkin

My daughter is an awesome singer and has won contests singing an Alicia Keyes song and and Envogue, but she also loves singing Country music. As a teenager she sang "Don't Come Home a Drinkin' at a company picnic we had at my employer. A lady at the table we were sitting at swirled around in her chair and swore the radio was playing because it sounded so much like Loretta.

Love all these Loretta videos!

Another classic country song by Mrs Loretta Lynn. She's a Queen of Country right up there with Mrs Dolly Parton.

Loretta and The White Stripes (Jack White)did a great collaboration... should listen to some of their songs

Don't mess wiht the First Lady of Country... ...she wrote all her songs.. amazing.

Gotta love Loretta, they gave her the right name she truly is the queen of country. You should listen to "ones on the way" another great song a story with a bit of humor.

very relevant back in the 60 and 70 how men treated women

Loretta wrote this song for her husband Doo.

Lo- retta tell it like it is!!!!!!

Love Loretta. She has an old duet with Ernest Tubb titled " Sweet Thang"

Loretta Lynn's brother, Jay Lee Webb, did an "answer" song to this called I Come Home A-Drinkin' (To a Worn Out Wife Like You)...lol!!

Thank You Both for reacting to Loretta Lynn. She has always been my favorite Country Singer, and 1 of my favorite Female Singers. She is so real & honest, and she was so funny, everybody Loved her being around Loretta. Some people have that rare gift. She’s been passed almost 1 year now.

She wrote it because she lived it.

Please please do a reaction to Loretta's little sister Crystal Gayle. She is in the country music hall of fame too. She had many hits like "Don't It Make My Brown Eyes Blue" , "Cry" , "Why Have You Left The One You Left Me For", "He's Beautiful To Me" you'll be just as impressed with her.

Love this song you have see her more fiery with her husband you have to try her song Your squaws on the war path tonight .

Her songs are simple yet deep. Read between the lines and and you get real heartache.

She said just stay out there and see what you can find.😂

I agree with some of the other subscribers, about Lorettas younger sister Crystal Gayle, she had a beautiful hit with "Don't it Make My Brown Eyes Blue". You won't be disappointed.

I love Loretta too. Her music is so honest, it cuts right to the core of the issue. The movie about her life Coal Miner's Daughter came out when I was high school. Seeing all that we she went through in her life , really taught me some valuable life lessons just when I needed them the most. I bought the sound track album to the movie and listened to the record every day after school. I love people who are sassy and honest about their experiences in life. It really helps the younger generation to know they are not alone, and that what they feel has been felt by others before them. Her and Dolly Parton, have taught me a lot about life and how as women, we must show courage and teach people how we want to be treated in this world. I really enjoy this rabbit hole and hope you will continue to do more Loretta songs in the future. Its always a treat! :)

Y'all are awesome. I'm a huge Loretta Lynn fan as was my mom,RIP mama. When my mom was younger she looked and sang a lot like Loretta. I am requesting a song called Dear Uncle Sam by her. Love to you both and may you and your family be happy and healthy.

loretta lynn and ernest tubb bartender and sweet thang

One thing about her, she just tells it like it is!!

You really do need to see the movie Coal Miner's Daughter. To see the humble beginnings for Loretta and how her and Doo fell in love and her rise in country music. She is one amazing woman and we are so blessed to still have her with us.

loretta lynn is a wonderful lady.......so strong......love her.....

I'm happy that y'all have discovered Loretta Lynn. The previous comments are all correct in that they characterize her talent and work as among the very best in Country music and served as a large contribution to the American song book. I believe also that this is a great opportunity for me to introduce y'all to Crystal Gayle whose career began in 1978 with a hugely successful hit, "Don't it Make my Brown eyes Blue." Crystal's real name is Brenda Webb and she is the youngest sister of Loretta Webb Lynn whom you all have come to enjoy. Crystal is both a very beautiful lady with very long raven hair and blue eyes but also blessed with a fantastic singing voice that is clear and melodious. Her songs were romantic and blues types and her hits were a success on multiple charts. Below is a link to a television appearance hosted by another great success of that era, Barry Gibb, younger brother of the Gibb brothers that formed The Bee Gees. Please give Crystal Gayle a good listen. You won't be disappointed and you'll want more. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/eZ-crcKq39iriqs.html

Loretta followed the Number One rule of songwriting---"write about what you know". In her case, she knew crushing poverty, the fear of being married as a teenager to an older man who liked sampling the local moonshine, and having babies. So she sang about these things. The problem was that radio stations weren't quite ready for someone like Loretta. Many of her songs, including "Don't Come Home A-Drinkin'", "One's On The Way", "The Pill" and others weren't played on country stations, particularly in the Bible Belt because they were considered controversial. I think the truth is more that these were "women's issues" and radio stations were run by men in those days. They treated her music like a hot potato, but her fans have always admired the courage it took for her to write and record these very personal songs.

I know you guys love Loretta, she is famous for saying it like it is! There are many Loretta Lynn songs along the same lines. There is a song called “Thanks a lot Loretta” by Ricky Cook you should listen to. It’s not the worlds greatest song, but it’s pretty funny- basically about a husband who had to straighten up his act because his wife listened to Loretta songs and that gave her the idea to make him behave. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/qKeRnbOi17Kuo30.html.

There will never be another like her!

Another queen of country. Good buddy of patsy cline. Both great ladies. Awesome old true country as it should be.. for me. New stuffs good too. But this is the country i grew up with!dan-1/13/22

There was one woman who knew how to put a man in his place, especially when he deserved it.

She is certainly sassy, love me some Loretta Lynn

PATSY CLINE was Lorettas idol.

You should check out some of Loretta's recent work. "Lay Me Down" in particular is great.

Exactly you guys nail it everytime.🥰

You got her singing "Don't come home a drinking, with loving on your mind" and "You Ain't Woman Enough". She is such a contradiction!! LOL BTW, my first concert was at 11 years old and it was Loretta Lynn! I Grew up on these songs!! I Love It!!

I love that y'all both comment on the songs!. I really love hearing both the male and female thoughts about the songs y'all play! I love all kinds of music, and Loretta's one of my favorites! She wrote all her songs! She was/is an amazing woman, singer and song writer! I agree with the others, y'all should watch the movie The Coal Miners Daughter!

One of my favorite singers since i was a teenager Charlene from California

Loretta is in her late eighties living in her town of HURRICANE MILLS TENNESSEE

Listen to Hang My Wings upon your Horns.

Loretta, is the Qween of country! She wrote all her songs and they were all true stories about her life. You should watch her movie, Coal Miners Daughter, you will love it! Thanks for your great reactions!

Crystal Gayle is Loretta Lynn little sis. Her song "CRY" is fabulous. Would love to hear your take on it. Tyvm

I went through some years of that, women lives could relate to her songs and I forever love her and her music

Loretta is the best. I have every album she put out and every song is good. Pliease listen to Darkest Day; Wings Upon Your Horns, and I'm The Other Woman.

Loretta is one true country singer

Loretta stirred up quite a controversary when she released "The Pill" in 1975. It is a comic tinged anthem to the birth control pill and how she was done having a baby every couple years. It was considered a risque topic in 1975 and banned in many places. Married women as late as 1970 had to have their husband's sign for his wife to be prescribed the pill in many states. It seems hilarious now, but was a serious matter in the 70s.

Loretta Don't play love her music 💖💖💖

Makes perfect sense to us women. period.

I'm so happy to hear this¡

You should do a reaction to her song Rated X and The Pill. Loretta always tells it like it is. Love her to pieces!!!

You GOTTA do I'm Going to Hire a Wino t o Decorate our Home...do it tomorrow!!!!!

Liquor and love they just don’t mix…. We all know what she really means with that. Xx

My Mom looked much like Loretta, the brown hair, petite body and blue eyes, my Dad showed her off when he could, and to my knowledge never came home drunk even after being with buddies at the NCO Club on base! Mom had the same attitude and did not put up with crap even from us 5 children, but we were well Loved!!!

There are folks from the country, then there was Loretta. Her song Coal Miner's Daughter is about her and her family growing up.

Glad you found my cousin's music. She is the true queen of country music.

Everybody Loved her.

It's about time! Queen of country music

Now you must react to Your Squaw Is On the Warpath.

Her song called Wine, Women, and Song is aimed at Her Husband

She’s a real deal..my 👸

This was my dad's favorite female singer that he named my youngest sister after her

Loretta Lynn - When The Tingle Becomes A Chill- Reaction

OH Loretta ! One of a kind :)

Our great old country girl that's right you tell them.

You guys got to watch her movie called coal Miner’s daughter it was so well done and so real to her. She said she had a hard time watching it, but it is so special to her.

Hey y'all, my mother was a huge fan of Ms Loretta, and had all her albums, of course as a kid in the 60s, we listened to them all the time, I love old classic country and was fortunate to have inherited mom's collection, just got a new record player (old school one) for Christmas 2yrs ago and we listen to them quite a bit, they also include the ones she did with Conway Twitty

amen Loretta RIP

Loretta's sister, Peggy Sue wrote this song. Her brother sang an answer to this song, I'LL COME HOME A DRINKIN'"...check it out. Also, check out Loretta Lynn's other sister, Crystal Gayle, who was also a mega country star in the 70s and 80s.

Loretta Lynn - Here I Am Again- Reaction

Another famous one by Loretta is "Ones On The Way". It is a true to life, and humorous song that consists of the housewife's thoughts on her "ordinary and not too glamorous life", and at the end of the song, one side of a phone conversation between herself and her husband. It's a classic, and different from anything you've probably ever heard before. It's serious, and humorous at the same time. The song references refer to celebrities that everyone knew of then. Who were always touted in the magazines as living glamorous lives. "Liz" is famous actress Elizabeth Taylor. "Jackie" is Jacqueline (Kennedy) Onassis. An American socialite, writer, photographer and book editor, who married President John F. Kennedy. And later, after he was assassinated, she married Greek millionaire Aristotle Onassis. Raquel Welch is a famous glamorous actress. "Debbie" refers to Debbie Reynolds, a singer and actress. "Ones On The Way" with lyrics, Loretta Lynn. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/rbWmicaWuazMeXU.html

Yay!! Another Loretta song!! Ty for these reactions. Her granddaughter also sings some of her greats...maybe you can do a comparison between grandma and grand daughter? #🐑
