I get along with all the women singers, but especially Dolly Parton. We talk the same hillbilly language.
I’d love to travel to the Holy Land.
You get used to sadness, growing up in the mountains, I guess.
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.
I’m not a big fan of Women’s Liberation, but maybe it will help women stand up for the respect they’re due.
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.
I’ve seen country music go uptown, like we say, and I’m proud I was there when it happened.
Mommy smoked but she didn’t want us to. She saw smoke coming out of the barn one time, so we got whipped.
Daddy was real gentle with kids. That’s why I expected so much out of marriage, figuring that all men should be steady and pleasant.
Do the best you can with yourself and hope for the best.
