And me and a steel player and my brother, he played the fiddle and sang.
So we sang together, and so we really had a good time, you know.
And I wrote Honky Tonk Girl and Whispering Sea during that time.
So you were doing some performing.
Yeah, I just had started.
In fact, I'd never sang in front of anybody until my husband pushed me out there, you know.
I'd never been out and sang for anybody.
But at home you sang?
I rocked the babies to sleep.
And in Kentucky, when I was growing up with my sisters and brothers, we all sang and rocked the babies to sleep, you know.
But that was about as far as we ever did, you know.
I had four kids.
Yeah, the twins come later.
It wasn't easy.
Me and my husband both worked.
I took care of the farmhouse.
I cleaned and cooked for 36 ranch hands.
Yeah, before I started singing.
So singing was easy.
