Story of My Life Lyrics


Well here's the story of my life
Listen and I'll tell it twiceYeah hey, yeah hey, yeah heyWell I was borned in old Kentucky
In them hills where folks are lucky
And it's paradise to meWell I got a feller right over the hill
If he asks me to marry well I know I will
He asked me to marry got kids of four
And I'm tellin' you, I don't want no moreYeah hey, yeah hey, yeah heyDoo got me a guitar, I wrote me a song
Moved to Nashville, it wasn't long
'Til I was on the Grand Ole OpryWe bought us a mansion on the hill
Livin' big like we were big deals
Scarlet O'Hara in Gone With The Wind
I was pregnant againOh gee, oh Lord, I swear
The babies are comin' in pairsYeah hey, yeah hey, yeah heyWell some big shot from Hollywood
Thought a movie about my life would be good
It was a big hit, made a big splash
What I wanna know is what happened to the cashYeah hey, yeah hey, yeah heyNow me and Doo, married forty-eight years
Six kids later a lot of laughter and tears
I have to say that I've been blessed

Not bad for this ol' Kentucky girl I guessYeah hey, yeah hey, yeah heyYeah hey, yeah hey, yeah heyWell here's the story of my life
Listen and I'll tell it twiceYeah hey, yeah hey, yeah hey

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
Loretta Lynn (born April 14, 1935 in Butcher Hollow,Van Lear, Kentucky) is an American country singer who was the leading country female vocalist during much of the 1960's and 1970's. In the 1970's she became one of the most famous women in all of America and frequently made "most admired women" polls alongside first ladies and world leaders.

According to Songfacts, Loretta Lynn's superstar Country career started in 1960 when she recorded " I'm a Honky Tonk Girl " as her debut single. The song was a minor hit, climbing to #14 on Billboard's C&W Chart. By the late 1960s she had begun picking up various Female Vocalist of the Year trophies and in 1972 the singer became the first woman in history to win the Country Music Association's Entertainer of the Year trophy. Lynn dominated the Country charts throughout the rest of the decade and has continued to record hit records through the ensuing years. Her 50th anniversary year began with the award of a Grammy Lifetime Achievement on January 31, 2010.

Lynn has released over 70 albums. She is the sister of famous country singer Crystal Gayle (born in Paintsville, Kentucky) and Peggy Sue, and is a cousin of Patty Loveless. Her father was a coal miner in Van Lear. Her biography was made into the 1980 film, Coal Miner's Daughter.
