GUEST,Frank Hamilton Lyr/Chords Req: songs by Loretta Lynn (16) RE: Lyr/Chords Req: songs by Loretta Lynn 16 Apr 22


He Stopped Lovin' Her Today, Lucille, and Jolene are expertly written country songs. The ability to paint pictures with few words is a gift that is evidenced by the above lyrics of Loretta.

I give credit to A.P. Carter and Woody Guthrie for this ability. Country music recycles melodies from earlier traditional sources and they are the vehicles for new forms of basic lyrics found in Country. Definitely part of a "folk process".
