thats because fist city isnt a warning, its a promise

Long before female rappers with attitude, she was the original!!!….. can’t tell you how many songs of hers they tried to ban off the radio. They’ll never be another Loretta.

I worked in radio for 30 years and in the mid 80's I ended up on Loretta's bus at a Conway/Loretta show. When I asked her to sign an album for me. She asked how to spell Bruce. I told her and she wrote BR and said, 'what was the rest?' I said UCE. She said, "Just cause I can sing, don't mean I had no schoolin'."

Right...and she always said she might be ignorant, but she ain't stupid.

Here's a quote from an article after her death. She married her husband when she was 15. " Their enduring union, which lasted for 48 years until Doo's death in 1996, weathered all sorts of storms, including his cheating and drinking - much of which was chronicled in her honky-tonk hits, including "Don't Come Home A' Drinkin' (With Lovin' on Your Mind)," "You Ain't Woman Enough (To Take My Man)" and "Fist City." "[We had] lots of ups and downs," Lynn told PEOPLE in 2010, but as she once famously said, "He never hit me one time that I didn't hit him back twice." "

Your face was Priceless when you heard the words. Loretta has an edge!!! This is the best Laugh I've had in ages!

Loretta was a boss. She wrote most of her songs and they were mostly autobiographical. Her husband was not an easy man... You need to check out: One's on the Way Don't Come Home a Drinkin' (With Lovin' on Your Mind) The Pill

I was in high school when that came out. I went in the Navy in 1964 so I know it before that because I remember hearing when I was living at home and I never went back to that house because it was sold while I was gone..

Loretta Lynn was revolutionary with her songs in the 1960's! They were hits too at that time! She did all these songs when the music industry was male dominated and very few women succeeded!

Love your reaction!!! Loretta truly was the Queen & always will be. A beautiful, sassy country girl from the hills of Kentucky. She wrote it like she saw it & sang it like she meant it.

Loretta and Patsy Cline were best friends back then, both of their husband's were drunk most of the time, he would cheat on her. These songs were about her life, true stories and nothing made up. She had a hard life, but was a fighter and lived to be 90. Loretta and Conway Twitty did a lot of duets together, give a listen some time. The Queen of country music. RIP❤

Loretta grew up in terrible poverty in a tiny coal mining town in Kentucky. Her songs were often autobiographical, including this one. She married her husband Doolittle when she was only 13. People keep trying to raise the age in these times, I've noticed....but she was 13. They stayed married all their lives, but did have ups and downs. You mentioned she had a Latina vibe. I don't know if it's relevant, but her mother was (I don't know to what degree) Native American. The film Coal Minor's Daughter is an excellent film and it's about her life.

The Queen of Country. RIP.

She was a tiny MIGHTY GIRL! She was the oldest child in an extremely poor family. She married very young, and had several children. Her husband gave her the guitar and she self taught, wrote songs and became the UNDISPUTED QUEEN OF COUNTRY MUSIC, she was good a friend to Patsy Cline. Please watch COAL MINER'S DAUGHTER, the movie. She's amazing.

Even Biggie said he got his storytelling skills from listening to country music growing up, his mom loves country

Loretta was an Appalachian, a hillbilly. In many wsys, that was America's OG ghetto, even though it was a rural one. It had the poverty, and it produced tough people just to survive. She shows that toughness and roughness in this song and others.

Van Leer is right down the road from me. Appalachian girls have to be tough, even now.

I grew up listening to Loretta Lynn and yes, she wrote her songs. She was gangster. She wrote based on what she knew and lived. I've watched some reactors diss Taylor Swift for "airing her dirty laundry", but Loretta Lynn wrote about her life for decades and it was one of the things that earned her the title "Queen of Country Music". Women, in particular, appreciate music that they can identify with. I believe that is a reason Taylor Swift has become such a phenomena with diehard, loyal fans.

Loretta Lynn sang about her life with truth. Listen to One’s On The Way and The Pill. She told the truth about life for most females at that time. Those songs were considered controversial and were banned in some places.

The lady she's singing about in this song had been telling her friends that she was going to take Doo away from her, but Loretta said in an interview what really set her off was when that lady told her kids she was going to be their new momma. She then said that when she caught Doo in a car with some woman when she was touring with Patsy Cline. She went off. By the time Doo got back on the bus she'd written "You ain't woman enough to take my man" .

She puts her husband in place with Don't Come Home A Drinking. You really need to watch the movie Coal Miner's Daughter it's so true to the real life that they had to calm it down to make the movie. She and her husband actually fought physically, she grew up using her first with her brothers and she was still a child when she got married but she was faithful and loyal. Got to love and respect her for sure.

Loretta Lynn was some times considered outlaw country with some of her songs. This is one of the songs and at least 2 others are the Pill and You Ain't Woman Enough To Take My Man. Loretta Lynn was from Kentucky and grew up very poor. Her father worked in the Coal mines in Eastern Kentucky. Loretta Lynn was friends with Kid Rock before she died at the age of 90. Loretta had a great sense of humor but you also didn't make her mad because she knew how to insult you without you knowing.

Don't mess with a country girl. Loretta was raised tough and had to do hard chores like all country folk did back in the day. She was the type that looked meek and weak, but you didn't want to mess with her. Most street girls sat on their rumps doing nothing most of their lives just getting high or drunk and only good at running their mouths. While most country girls worked hard took care of their health, eating what come from the fields and gardens and their farm animals so naturally stronger with more stamina than the average city girl. My favorite part to this song though is, " I'm not a-sayin' my baby is a saint, 'cause he ain't And that he won't cat around with a kitty I'm here to tell you, gal, to lay off of my man If you don't wanna go to Fist CityI And like she said, She meant it too.

Loretta always kept it real and wrote songs about things that everyone can relate too. She was the genuine article for sure.

I love Loretta. She always laid it out how it was 😂❤

She was once asked about domestic violence in her marriage. Her reply was “I was never hit once that didn’t give it back twice.” She was no pushover, especially once she grew from a teen age newly wed to a woman of success. Check out I Miss Being a Mrs Tonight, written after her husband Dew passed away.

I've never heard this song before either, that was fire and so fun to watch you react to! That smile of hers while telling someone off......classic!!

She did write it. She also meant every word of it! There is a movie titled "Coal Miner's Daughter". It's based on her life.

You know - WE WERE LAUGHING - but, it was because of your APPRECIATION at her BARS!! That's the way WE FELT when these songs first came out! Funny to me - Loretta always sounded like she was ready to GO to Fist City - while, the WHOLE while - smiling while she's singin'!! I LOVE THESE REACTIONS, BP!!! THANKS for giving these a listen! THEY ARE AWESOME and ICONIC songs!! Loretta was AWESOME, back in the day - and, I'm so GLAD that I grew up with all these GEMS!! :) HUGS!

Try her lesser known song ‘I Want You Out of My Head, (and back in my bed’. She was a pioneer of women being sexual beings in their own right and not just being the good girl men miss or the bad girl that leads them astray in country music. Her duets with Conway Twitty are legendary in the man/woman genre. Also for a laugh check their duet ‘You’re the Reason Our Kids Are Ugly’…. It’s a hoot

Glad you got to this one & yes, I was laughing at you. Loretta was tough and meant every word of this song. It was personal and this was Loretta's warning to her. In an interview Loretta admitted to having been in a couple of fights because of her husband Doo.

She's the Queen of Country music for a reason.

She was an amazing lady. Please bring us more Loretta.

Another one like this is 'Ruby's Stool'... I know I wouldn't wanna mess with Loretta's man. And 'You're The Reason Our Kids Are Ugly' is funny

She wrote "The Pill" about birth control. It was very controversial. Loretta wrote most of her songs.

BP your enthusiasm and love for music is what makes your reactions so good. I love hearing it in your voice when you are being open and yourself.

Joy Lynn here to hear Loretta Lynn

Yes loretta wrote that song!!! She is the GOAT!!!

She was a permanent guest star on the wilburn brothers t.v. show which is what shes on here. It was the perfect forum for her to showcase her powerful singing and songwriting she just blew everybody in nashville away how shed come each week with a different totally original song. People would be like wtf? or whoose writing these? And shed just smile through the whole thing

She was an Eastern Kentucky girl! She was tough, it was a hard way to grow up. But you definitely don’t want to mess with a Kentucky girl, they usually can take you down! Lol.

She was singing facts!

You should read her autobiography "Coal Miner's Daughter" - she had such a hard life. She married at 15 and if memory serves, had her first child at 16. Her songs were always good. BTW, Loretta's ancestry was Cherokee on her mother's side. Another great song was "You Ain't Woman Enough". Rest in peace Loretta, you've earned it.

I remember Loretta Lynn from when I was a child, but haven't heard her in years.

I love the opening line to this song, it's always killed me. Its such a great diss 💯

I love how she sings this so calm with a big smile on her face. ❤

Your facial expressions while listening to this song were priceless!, You are correct, she was a fighter, and she did wright the song.

I love that you love Loretta!!! She was an amazing singer/songwriter! Another great one is The Pill. You will die when you hear this one!😂😂

Country Music 🎶 always tells a Story in their songs That’s why I Listen to their Music 🎶 all Artists and Songwriters they are Amazing ❤

The song "You're the Reason" with Conway Twitty. It's hilarious! I sing it around my children just for fun.

Loretta Lynn wrote all her music .

She's a wonderful example of an old fashioned southern woman!!! We don't mess around! LOL LOL LOL LOL

She was such a bad ass

Classic and really good country songs tell about life and what matters.They don’t try to change the world, just themselves and who they love.. Fighting for what and who you love is basic. To many people dismiss country because it’s basic, but really isn’t what matters most basic to us all?

She and Conway Twitty had a song As soon as I hang up the phone, Great song

There was a reason she was a queen of country music :)

What truly amazing about the Queen of Country is she was making this music in the 60s and 70s. I remember all of the controversy surrounding much of her music. She was a true pioneer in paving the way for questionable lyrics. No one pushed the envelope prior to her.

Ice cold. She's singing it with a smile.....

It really was her town. She bought a horse property and didn't realise the little town came with it. By being Loretta she brought money int town - but she owned it all ! She was bad ass and wrote her stuff herself !

Loretta was very young, had no filter, wrote what she lived. As a result, she was banned from a lot of radio stations.

You need to sit down with the family and watch Coal Miner's Daughter(Loretta's story), Sweet Dreams(Patsy Cline's story) and Walk The Line(Johnny Cash's story) You won't regret it!! Another Loretta song that she also wrote is Don't Come Home a'Drinkin'(With Lovin' on Your Mind). Loretta songs were songs she wrote about her own life. Sissy Spacek played Loretta in Coal Miner's Daughter and NAILED it! I have watched it so much I can pretty much recite the whole thing! LOL I watch it every single time it plays on the tv and I own it on VHS and DVD, lol.

Loretta was gangsta as hell. Just like all of us Eastern Kentucky girls!!!!

HA!Thats how we do in Kentucky!Dang on right she wrote this .Its autobiographical!❤

My girl for life!!❤️

Check out Chapel Heart’s response to this song also titled Fist City, per Loretta’s personal request to the ladies (Chapel Heart) after Loretta heard their version of Dolly Parton’s song Jolene, also a must listen to.

Loretta Lynn the original G 😂 and this is the early 60’s

And that's a true story!!! I love her!!❤😂❤😊

She learned her self how to play a guitar. Du got her her first guitar and took her to bars and places to sing. We need to watch her movie. Coal miners daughter.

She's droppin bars that would fit on a Geto Boys CD😝😝🔥🔥

She called her husband Doolittle or Doo. In the song Lyin' Cheatin' Woman Chasin' Honky Tonkin' Whiskey Drinkin' You, she actually calls her husband out by name...a couple of times!

You can't have her! She's been my girlfriend since sometime back in the late 60s when I got her autograph on her photo when the Grand Ol' Opry came through Seattle! She knocked me out! Well, you know, I mean metaphorically. Loved your reaction!

Now react to Chapel Hart’s “Welcome to Fist City”!! Before Loretta passed she asked them to do something with one of her songs. Chapel Hart is an independent black female country music trio from south Mississippi and they’re incredible!! Love Loretta!! Thanks for reacting!!!

I’m really starting to question my childhood because I knew soooo many women like this. Lol lol lol.

My college roommate back in the early 80s reminded me of Loretta Lynn. She was tough!!! 😆 🤣 😂 we were both country girls, but I wasn't rowdy like she was. We went to a very conservative Christian university, and every time she got in trouble, the school administrators came to ask me about her whereabouts and what she was up to. I honestly never knew what she was up to. I didn't want to know!!! 😆 🤣 😂

Let us not forget that Loretta Lynn had a perfect singing voice...

I'm and old man that loves classic country , you are my number 1 reactor

She also did a song about birth control. Back when it first came out in the 60's. Its called the pill, I think. Worth a listen.

She has taken a few to Fist City! She said if you get the first lick in, you should do ok. But, if you don't get the first lick in, it ain't so good. Also, her husband would hit her, and she would hit him back twice! When she says detour around my town...she means the real town of Hurricane Mills, Temnessee which was included in the deal (unbeknownst to her at the time) when she bought her mansion and ranch in about 1965. Her mansion sits on a small hill overlooking the river and her town on the other bank. Her family still lives on the ranch. The mansion is open for tours, along with her museum, a replica coal mine shaft, and a replica of the cabin she grew up in on a hill in Butcher Hollow, Kentucky.

Loretta was gansta before gansta was a thing 😂. She’s the real deal.

Speak in a Patsy Cline, she's my idol. Beautiful voice. Willy Nelson wrote the song Crazy, for her. Another one is sweet dreams.

You are correct. She did things her way and called people out. An original outlaw artist.

Loretta was a good songwriter.

Loretta was spitting 🔥

Errrrrrbody loves Ms Loretta. And she was NOT playing. I'm telling ya dude, if you get the chance to watch the movie Coal Miners Daughter.. you will always be a Loretta fan. Great reaction!! She has more!

We ALL LOVE Loretta Lynn. People have always dismissed & made fun of Country Music. What they didn't realize is how amazing the storytelling is & it's about life. Loretta has so many great songs. Then she did the duets with Conway Twitty. They were on fire together! You need to listen to their duets. My favorite is " Louisiana Woman, Mississippi Man" Also "Lead me on," "After the fire is gone," "7 til 10." Conway & Loretta are my favorite duet team & that says a lot. Because Country Music has many great duets by other artist. Any song mentioned in the comments you'll love. You will learn a lot about Loretta if you read her book & watch the movie both titled "Coal Miners Daughter." Can't wait to see what you pick next of Loretta Lynn. Many of the singers l grew up listening to, are "too Country" for country radio today. Makes me sad.

When these female rappers are beefing, one of them has to sample this ish.

They made a movie about her life, "Coal Miner's Daughter". Sissy Spacek won the Academy Award for Best Actress for her portrayal of Loretta.

Check out the song Your Squaw is on the Warpath or Don't come home A'Drinkin!!! She told it like it was and spoke for many women. There will never be another like her.

Great song
