carly pearce - dear miss loretta (live from music city) lyrics

[intro]
send me a voice text telling me that she loved this song, so i feel like that’s a win
and miss patty loveless came and sang this with me on my record
so miss loretta, here’s your song

[verse 1]
dear miss loretta, i ain’t ever met you
but i’m lonely tonight and i just bet you
might have some wisdom to pull off that shelf
your songs were all fun ’til i lived them myself
[chorus]
i ain’t a coal miner’s daughter, but my grandmother was
must be whiskey in the water, must be bourbon in the blood
i’m a long way from kentucky, but the hurting’s the same
and now i know why you sang that way

[verse 2]
oh, what ended up tough started out broken
what ended up lost started out hopin’
a lifetime of pain was three minutes long
and you weren’t ashamed when the world sang along, no

[chorus]
i ain’t a coal miner’s daughter, but my grandmother was
must be whiskey in the water, must be bourbon in the blood
i’m a long way from kentucky, but the hurting’s the same
and now i know why you sang that way

[verse 3]
dear miss loretta, we both grew up too fast
and i wish you could tell me how you made it last

[chorus]
i ain’t a coal miner’s daughter, but i’ve sung it all my life
i ain’t been a widow, but i’ve been an ex+wife
and i hear your truth and i feel your pain
and now i know why you sang that way
yeah, i know why you sang that way
[outro]
i love you, loretta
