Tammy Wynette Kind of Pain (commentary) Lyrics

Reba McEntire

Thanks for checking out the Stronger Than the Truth album
Release special here on Big Machine Radio. I am Becca, I am so
Happy to have Reba here with me to tell us about every song on
The album from her perspective. And you know, sometimes, you
Come across a song and all you′ve gotta do is hear the title
To get an idea of what it's gonna feel like, what it′s gonna say
And I would say that "Tammy Wynette Kind of Pain" is one of
Those songs. I mean, you just feel what that title is all about

Oh my gosh. Now that is a woman's song to me. When you say, "
I'm hurtin′, it′s a Tammy Wynette kind of pain," your mind goes
To all the Tammy Wynette songs that she recorded and had out
All the monster hits that she had. They were all talking about
Heartache, heartbreak, and it wraps it up, and that's a good
Description. That′s the adjective of pain, Tammy Wynette kind of pain

And like I said, I think we all know what you're talking about when
You say that phrase. There′s so much power to it, and you know
Sometimes it's hard to believe that we lost Tammy twenty years ago
Over twenty years ago, and I′m wondering, do you remember the last
Time you talked to her, or do you have a special memory of Tammy?

Well, one of the last times I remember seeing her is we were at a
Function. I don't know if it was ASCAP, BMI, or something, but I'd
Gone to the bathroom, and I was washing my hands at the
Sink, and I felt somebody, "Hey girl, what are you doing?
" I looked over, and it′s Tammy. She was precious, I just
Really adored her. I listened to her songs, I loved her
Along with Dolly, and Loretta, and Barbara. My heroes

That is an incredible group of women you just listed off there
And like I said, I think the title tells you a lot about
What you need to know about this song. This is "Tammy
Wynette Kind of Pain" off Reba′s new album Stronger Than the
Truth, which is available now, and this is Big Machine Radio
