Everything Mr Hellard said is true about PDGTM, to my knowledge. My mother was never a stripper and the song is purely fictional. As a matter of fact, mom worked for the Wilburn Brothers when they still had Loretta Lynn under management contract, then w/ Buddy lee Attractions when Hank Jr. was still part owner, then went to work Mel Tillis & Don Williams, Tommy Overstreet, The Blackwood Family, Jerry Wallace, before going into partnership with Gene Watson’s manager and moving back to texas in the late 70’s. I don’t think she would’ve had time to strip back then , although she is very multi-talented, ha!! But it does make for a good story.
warmest regards from the great state of Texas,
