Tammy Wynette, Loretta Lynn and myself were all in it (Country Music) about the same time. They got a little bit of a head start on me, certainly Loretta, but we were all three good friends and actually ended up doing an album together. But I think I was a little different from them. Loretta had a house full of kids and she wrote those being brought down by men songs. Hers were more about home life and all the women who had children and I totally love and respect her. Tammy could sing any number of things but she was also singing that Stand By Your Man. I was singing songs like Just Because I`m A Woman . . . my mistakes are no worse than yours just because I`m a woman. I think we all did our little thing. I just filled my spot.
