Loretta Lynn - Wouldn't It Be Great? Lyrics






Wouldn't it be fine if you could say you love me just one time with a sober mind?
Wouldn't that be fine, now wouldn't that be fine?
Wouldn't it be great if you could love me first and let the bottle wait?
Now wouldn't that be great, now wouldn't that be great?

Wouldn't it be great, hey, hey, wouldn't that be great?
Throw the old glass crutch away and watch it break
Wouldn't it be great, hey, hey, wouldn't that be great?
Lord, it's for our sake, now wouldn't that be great?

In the name of love, what's the man so great keep thinking of?
In the name of love, what a man he was
Love went to waste when the sexy lace couldn't turn his face
The bottle took my place, love went to waste

Wouldn't it be great, hey, hey, wouldn't that be great?
Throw the old glass crutch away and watch it break
Wouldn't it be great, hey, hey, wouldn't that be great?
Lord, it's for our sake, now wouldn't that be great?

Wouldn't it be good and I know you could if you just would
Wouldn't that be good, Lord I know you could

Wouldn't it be great, hey, hey, wouldn't that be great?
Throw the old glass crutch away and watch it break
Wouldn't it be great, hey, hey, wouldn't that be great?
Lord, it's for our sake, now wouldn't that be great?
Now wouldn't that be great?

    Wouldn't it be fine if you could say you love me
    Just one time with a sober mind?
    Wouldn't that be fine, now wouldn't that be fine?

    Wouldn't it be great if you could love me first
    And let the bottle wait?
    Now wouldn't that be great, now wouldn't that be great?

    Wouldn't it be great, hey, hey, wouldn't that be great?

    In the name of love, what's the man so great?

    Love went to waste when the sexy lace couldn't turn his face
    The bottle took my place, love went to waste

    Wouldn't it be great, hey, hey, wouldn't that be great?
    Throw the old glass crutch away and watch it break

    Now wouldn't that be great?

    The way you sing this song and how you express in your voice makes my heart feel not so alone. The mam in my life died from drinking and I just wish they put the bottle down and hear "I love you" with a sober mind. I still love him

    I can see why Loretta is still the First Lady Of Country Music. She still has the pipes and her life of a healthy lifestyle, keeps her going. Every time is see the movie, Coal Miner’s Daughter is on, I watch it, even though I’ve seen it a dozen times. Her life wasn’t perfect, her marriage wasn’t perfect and her kids, aren’t perfect, but, that is real life, isn’t it!? Imagine if Doolittle didn’t push her singing career! Even though he was known as a tyrant, alcoholic and womanizer, he was her number one fan.

  21. I.... B....

    Love Loretta Lynn! Her voice is timeless, she's definitely a forever treasure. ❤️

  22. S.... D....

    Still amazing! God bless and keep on going Miss Lynn!

  23. L.... F....

    Loretta has always been my idol.
    She is the greatest country female singer out there & still has her roots to where she came from & I admire her alot. She is so great

  24. K.... D....

    Your such an inspiration, such a sweet soul in a strong woman ! Much love...

  25. W.... F....

    The RANGE on this woman! From sweet and tender to raw and powerful in the same song. She's a living legend.

  26. S.... P....

    she sang that song to her boyfriend as he was dying

  27. l.... ....

    Loretta Lynn is 86 years old now, & to say she has still got it would be the understatement of the century!!!!!!

  28. c.... p....

    the old glass crutch - great

  29. N.... R....

    86 my Lord!

    N.... R....

    Hello rod

  30. M.... H....

    What a great voice. She’s a gem. When your 86, and still have such a voice. She deserves respect for what she stands for. She’s still country, and still sings country. I believe everyone can relate to her songs. Plus, I bet no one her age can still fill a building like she does.

  31. j.... ....

    I will say this as a man even I could feel her pain and raw emotion of sorrow in this song that it made me cry,😪 after all he did to her she still loved him💙 he changed later for the better, but wasted so much on the glass crutch and other women he lost so much more with her! This version is the purest form of love pain n emotion anyone could feel in her voice, and was written with all her heart to the one she truly loved 💙 god bless ya loretta and this piece of art music never heard one like it! #TakeHeedToTheMessageGlassCrutchers #ThisIsForYouTooWomanizers #WouldntItBeGreat 💯🌹❤

    This one goes out to my best friend Kristin and the divorce that said goodbye to the last time he hit you. To all Women who've found the strength to step away, this is for you :-) 👊💪

  64. B.... F....

    Good voice good instrumentals backing her and a meaningful topic close to her heart and thousands of fans every where. She is still making social and moral statements through her music to make the world better. What a great person who uses her talent to help as well as entertain.

  65. K.... w....

    I'm related to her. She is my pawpaw's cousin.

  66. L.... ....

    I just watched your movie. You are an amazing person. I never like country music and always listened to Hip Hop music until I heard your music. "You aint woman enough to take my man" is my favorite!

  67. B.... F....

    Great job. Her voice and heart makes this a beautiful song.

  68. C.... L....

    You can tell who's singing about lol.
    Ole Moody God bless and May he Rest in Peace

  69. S.... ....

    I have to give her hubby Dewey 2 thumbs up for kicking her butt and making her get up on stage that 1st time in the bar to sing, b'coz if he didn't none of us would have ever heard her bold brilliant voice and she was a huge inspiration to me. I so admire her determination to over come all her obstacles through her life's journey to rise to fame and stardom. God Bless Loretta. She's got an incredible voice even at 86 yrs of age.

  70. R.... ....

    My Hero!! Love you Loretta!!

  71. S.... B....

    She sang this to her husband he passed away

  72. l.... a....

    I have been a fan since I first heard her sing

  73. A.... M....

    I love you Loretta, saw you at an Ice Arena in Allen Park, MI, years ago. My Mother knew how much I loved your music, and she took me to see you. We even walked by the Coal Miner bus, and I put my hand on it. My Daddy is from Martin County, Ky. and my Mother is from Pike County, Ky. I spent most of my life there, at the homeplace. It's gone now, but the family still there, Mother was a school teacher and moved us to Michigan, for better pay. She taught for over 40's, and her first job, was in a one room school house. I love your music.

  88. O.... M....

    very special,simple and pure

  89. W.... W....

    My 6 yr old daughter thinks this is modern country. She can sign most of Lorettas songs as they play

  90. M.... W....

    I agree no one should be called anyting like great country singer of the world but Loretta Lynn she is still with us she wouldn't want it any other way mind you she would want the other singers to have recognition too I know her well enough as a singer to know that she wouldn't want to leave other people's or other singers out but for now all of us are right she will always be the first lady of country music the queen of country music Loretta Lynn Patsy Cline Kitty Wells Tammy Wynette all of them are the wonderful singers of yesterday I guess people wonder why Loretta Lynn is still doing what she does she said she doesn't know anything else but this is all she has ever known in her life consider that she married so young and her life considered that her life was shortened as a child because she married so young and if it wasn't for Doolittle Lynn she would not be where she is right now we all owe it to do little Lynn for what he did for her he may have had his bad points but you know what none of us or escape from doing wrong we have all done wrong in our life and we all are up to it what he did in his life but we should never ever hold it against them for who they are for they are human just like us Loretta Lynn would be hurt if all of us had a negative thing to say or do little Lynn because they are special people and it takes special people from God above to make it what it is without Loretta Lynn and Patsy Cline and Kitty Wells and Tammy Wynette there wouldn't be music today like it is mind you I love the music of yesterday and I think Loretta Lynn says it all when she sings all her beautiful songs to make all of us smile let's remember her as she would want to be remembered she is with us and I hope she is for a long time yet however she needs to take it easy to

  91. M.... W....

    I agree with you yes Loretta Lynn deserves more respect than anyone would ever know I don't like anyone to be negative about the great lady of country music we got to remember she came from a poor home and she will never forget her roots as a child could any of us say that we have been as far as her know some of us can't I've never been able to travel any further than Florida that's the only place I've ever been I went to London Ontario in 2003 and I got to see that great lady of country music but I was so far away and because of my sight I could hardly see her but you could bet that I sang every one of her songs along with her my mom was sitting beside me and she said merry be quiet I said why she said because I came here and I want to sing Loretta Lynn's music and I kept it up and when they came to Coal Miner's Daughter I didn't even want to leave we were supposed to leave during a song so that we could get out in the lobby to see her but I'm glad that I stayed and saying coal miner's daughter with her the greatest singer of all times let us all pay humble respects to her and treat her what the utmost dignity as she deserves she has gone through a lot she had that stroke then she broke her hip she deserves a lot of credit for coming back out and singing and I think that the more we love her the more that she will be blessed God bless all of us who love her and God bless her for being who she is

  92. S.... G....

    Jesus take the wheel is the only song Carrie sang that I like. I love every song Loretta has done.

  93. N.... ....

    Amazing!!!! Love you Mrs.Loretta!!

  94. J.... W....

    Legend of country music love her so much 💚

  95. S.... A....

    Queen of Country... God bless you ... I love you loads 💕💕❤

  96. R.... C....

    Is there anything she can't sing? More acoustic than I am as used to but it lets her voice show through more. A little different but a great different turn. There are supposed to be more albums and I can't wait!!

  97. D.... M....

    Who the hell gives this a thumbs down love you loretta

    D.... M....

    Hello Donnie

  98. p.... b....

    And it is tough for her know she will mostly likely never tour again due to the stroke and then breaking her hip
