Contents
I Like 'em Country was Loretta Lynn's fifth studio album and was released by Decca Records. The album unlike Lynn's previous two albums released two singles instead of only one single. The first single, "The Home You're Tearing Down" was released in 1965 and became a Top 10 hit, followed by the second single, "Dear Uncle Sam", a self-penned single by Lynn about the Vietnam War. The song was Lynn's only self-penned composition on this album. The album was another 12-track album by Lynn. Well-known cover versions that Lynn covered for the album included Hank Williams' "Your Cheatin' Heart" and Johnny Cash's "Cry, Cry, Cry." The album was one of two Country studio albums Lynn would release for 1966. The album peaked at #2 on the Billboard Top Country Albums chart, her highest position on that chart since her debut album.
