Great singer, don't make enough like this anymore...I am sure someone will complain about the "indian beat" of the music

Thank you, my friend CPL Dave Hoover for sharing the audio track of Loretta Lynn performing "Red White And Blue" from the 1976 album "When The Tingle Becomes A Chill."
This song was also released as a single 45 RPM record. I could not find a live performance which may have been due to prejudice in those days.
"Red White And Blue" written by Loretta Lynn
Lyrics
"Red comes from my Grandpa, he's an all American Brave.
White come from my Grandma, she's a red-headed Irish maid.
The blue come from the man I love, 'cause this boy said I do.
That leaves me a mixed-up with the red, white and blue.
I'm red, white and blue, ah ooh ah ooh ah ooh, ah ooh ah ooh ah ooh
And proud of it too.
I'm a blue-eyed Indian squaw, everybody calls me a half-breed.
That's what you get when you sow a little red and a white seed.
The white man said he'd marry me, he liked cold turkey too.
That leaves me a mixed-up with the red, white and blue.
I'm Red White and Blue, ah ooh ah ooh ah ooh, ah ooh ah ooh ah ooh
And proud of it too.
The great white powers had a plan to take the red man's land.
Well, I bet you think I'm petulant, but I'd never lie to you.
There's warrior's blood runs through my veins, an' I wish my skin was true.
Wish my skin was true.
I'm Red White and Blue. ah ooh ah ooh ah ooh, ah ooh ah ooh ah ooh
I'm Red White and Blue. ah ooh ah ooh ah ooh, ah ooh ah ooh ah ooh
I'm Red White and Blue. ah ooh ah ooh ah ooh, ah ooh ah ooh ah ooh"
