Step 1 : Introduction to the question "Who sang "Don't Come Home A-Drinkin' [With Lovin' on Your Mind]"?"
...Many thought Loretta Lynn was talking about her own husband when she recorded this song. He caused turmoil through their 50-year marriage because of his alcoholism. But it was actually her sister Peggy Sue's struggles with an alcoholic husband that inspired this classic country song. Peggy brought the song idea to Loretta, who expanded it and developed the musical tract. The song hit the airwaves in 1966 and Lynn became the first female country singer to earn a gold album when her album featuring the song sold over 500,000 copies. Source: SongFacts.com
