Loretta Lynn (née Webb; born on April 14, 1932) is an American country-music singer-songwriter and author. Born in Butcher Hollow, near Paintsville, Kentucky, USA, to a coal-miner father. At the age of 14 she married, and soon she became pregnant. She moved to Washington state with her husband, Oliver Vanetta Lynn, Jr. (1926–1996), nicknamed "Doo". Their marriage was tumultuous; he had affairs, and she was headstrong; their life together helped to inspire her music. more »

I left our hometown for the weekend on a big business deal
And I would close behind you my excuse is sharp and drill
My only business is our pleasure and I don't bother things I won't
Cause we're playing house away from home
We're playing house away from home our names and faces are unknown
Everyone thinks that we're man and wife
We even wear our wedding rings and we don't try to hide this thing
Cause we're playing house away from home
[ steel ]
We'll get up in the morning I'll go my way and I'll go mine
And go home to act like strangers and hope no one can tell
That we have left all the bills from actin' right and doin' wrong
Cause we're playing house away from home
We're playing house...
Yes we're playing house away from home
