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
