Doolittle Lynn:
Loretta, I am leaving Kentucky. I'm going out west to Washington to get me a job on a ranch or something. That damned ol' coal mine's got me buried alive. Loretta Lynn:
Was you just gonna leave me? Doolittle Lynn:
Just long enough to get the money to send for you. Loretta Lynn:
What makes you think I'd come? Doolittle Lynn:
'Cause you're my wife, darling! Loretta Lynn:
I'm your wife! Boy, you better think of a better reason than that. Doolittle Lynn:
There ain't nothing for me in Kentucky, Loretta. Except a chest full of coal dust and bein' an old man time I'm 40. You ask your daddy. 'Sides that, you got to come with me, I love you. Loretta Lynn:
You promised Daddy you wouldn't take me off far from home. Doolittle Lynn:
Well, you just have to make up your mind, darling, whether or not you're his daughter or my wife. Get in. I'll take you back to the house. What are you doing in the bottom anyhow? Loretta Lynn:
I come to see Doc Turner. Doolittle Lynn:
You sick? Loretta Lynn:
Yeah, I'm gonna have a baby. Doolittle Lynn:
[laughs]
Oh, Lord, Loretta. You know, darlin', you might have found something that you know how to do
