For you that haven't seen any of the Coal Miners Daughter, I have just a little bit here with us.
Just a little bit of the film where my daddy is trying to talk me out of getting married.
And friends, he didn't do a very good job of it either.

[N] Now, Reddy, you know I don't like to boss you.
But I got to now, honey.
Daddy.
Just let me talk.
Doolittle's been up the house every day this week.
I don't want him hanging around no more.
Why?
Because you ain't got no business hanging around with him.
You're just a little girl.
He's a grown-up man.
Wild as a devil.
I love him, Daddy.
But he's a wanton man of mine.
You ain't even 14 yet.
Y'all ain't knowed each other a month.
I know.
But I love him.
Lord, Lord.
Don't do it, Loretta.
Don't throw all them young years away.
You're my pride, girl.
My shining pride.
[D]
[E] I just can't help it.
I can't.
[A]
[Dbm] [D] [A] I was much more than a baby.
I thought it was a bounty.
The way my daddy carried [E] me around.
They said I learned just one thing.
One hand of a man that stands [A] six foot three.
Not old enough to understand the meaning of the pressure.
Just one the people talk about [E] a lot.
My daddy wasn't one big impression.
Just one heck of a man that worked for a lot [A] of young.
[D] They don't make me like him.
Get [A] lift, y'all.
I'm a little fierce.
[D]
[A] We really [D] need him.
They [A] don't make him like my [Bm] daddy [A] anymore.
[D]
[A] From the Johnson County cold case to the hillboy and the chimney.
I'm broke down in them [E] dark, cold mines.
Education didn't count so much as what you had to live.
I've been a dreamer better [A] than I am.
Daddy never touched a handout with pinto beans and bacon.
But he worked to keep the wolf back from [E] the door.
It was one thing to me when folks start belly aching.
They don't make him like my daddy [A] anymore.
[D]
[A] It's such a way to pat her through the years.
[D] It's a great freedom.
[A] I really [D] need it.
[A] They don't make [E] him like my daddy [A] anymore.
Daddy

I've loved you and I've always let [G] you have the time.
How come you think you're so smart [D] and I'm the weaker sex?
There ain't no man in life that can match a woman trick [G] for trick.
