What Did They Mean By That?

Episode 61- Coal Miner's Daughter- Loretta Lynn


Listen Later

In honor of this queen of country music, join us as we discuss Loretta Lynn's autobiographical song, called a "memoir set to music."  A vulnerable and honest look at her early life, this song made its way into a film.  This song is just one of the many portraits she creates about her life, women's issues, and men who better not come home drunk and looking for lovin'.  RIP Loretta Lynn.

Performance of "Coal Miner's Daughter" on the Ed Sullivan Show in 1970
