Loretta Lynn, 88, shared her experience in Tennessee alongside her daughter via Instagram, “Well, I bundled up and Peggy Jean and I rolled out of Hurricane Mills so I could get this vaccine. I’m sure glad to get it and am sure ready to put Covid in the rear view mirror! And I enjoyed the mom daughter time, too! #winning #sickofcovid #stayhealthy #besafe #getyours”
“He was bragging yesterday after he got it that he didn’t even have a sore arm,” Willie’s wife, Annie D’Angelo Nelson, told Rolling Stone. “Now, today, of course his arm is sore. We’re both just a little tired. I don’t know if we wouldn’t be tired anyway, but we’re gonna do what they said and let the vaccine do its job.”
“Lay Me Down” Lyrics
I’ve raised my head and set myself
In the eye of a storm in the belly of a whale
My spirit stood on solid ground
I’ll be at peace when they lay me down
When I was a child I cried
Until my needs were satisfied
My needs have grown pound for pound
I’ll be a peace when they lay me down
When they lay me down someday
My soul will rise and fly away
This whole world will turn around
I’ll be at peace when they lay me down
This life isn’t fair it seems
It’s filled with tears and broken dreams
There are no tears where I am bound
And I’ll be at peace when they lay me down
When they lay me down someday
My soul will rise and fly away
This whole world will turn around
I’ll be at peace when they lay me down
When they lay me down someday
My soul will rise and fly away
This whole world will turn around
I’ll be at peace when they lay me down
When I was a child I cried
