Loretta Lynn - "Fist City" For my dollar, the best "you fuck with my man I'll fuck with your face" songs.  She ain't messin' around with these lyrics! 
You've been makin' your brags around town That you've been a lovin' my man But the man I love, when he picks up trash He puts it in a garbage can And that's what a you look like to me And what I see's a pity Close your face and stay outta my way If ya don't wanna go to fist city If ya don't wanna go to fist city Ya better detour around my town 'Cause I'll grab you by the hair a the head And I'll lift a you off a the ground I'm not a sayin' my baby's a saint 'cause he ain't And that he won't cat around with a kitty I'm here to tell ya gal to lay offa my man If ya don't wanna go to fist city Come on and tell me what you told my friends If you think you're brave enough And I'll show you what a real woman is Since you think you're hot stuff You'll bite off more than you can chew If you get to cute or witty You better move your feet If you don't wanna eat A meal that's called fist city If you don't wanna go to fist city You better detour around my town 'Cause I'll grab you by the hair a the head And I'll lift you offa the ground I'm not a sayin' my baby's a saint 'cause he ain't And that he won't cat around with a kitty I'm here to tell ya gal to lay offa my man If ya don't wanna go to fist city I'm here to tell ya gal to lay offa my man If ya don't wanna go to fist city | |

Love this song. I like in the movie when she's playing it on the bus, Doo asks her what made her come up with those lyrics and she's like, "What you think???"

 Tommy Lee too. One of my all time faves. The book was really good too. For some reason I read it when I was in 3rd grade almost 30 years ago.  I've been loving LL ever since. She's a genius, especially considering her lack of education.  | |

I, um, accidentally downloaded something with this title and it had nothing to do with Loretta Lynn. Love her, though! | |

She's a genius, especially considering her lack of education. For some reason the country genre inspired poetry in successive generations of white trash.

(Hank Williams, Dolly Parton, etc.) I wouldn't call any of them white trash. Country, poor, uneducated but not white trash IMO. Dolly is another one that is a certifiable genius, as a singer/songwriter AND businesswoman. She had the forsight in the early 70s to say no to Elvis when he wanted to record I'll Always Love You but Col. Parker demanded half of the publishing even though Dolly had already had a hit with it. She told them to bounce and 20 years later cashed the hell in. And 9 to 5 is about to open on Broadway. Dolly is my GURL!  | |

Oh yeah I forgot to use my telepathy to see past the words YOU typed and figure out your actual intention.  Instead of blaming ME for taking what you typed at face value you could've just said you were kidding and kept it moving. | |
