Carly Pearce just gave me goosebumps with a new song she wrote, “Dear Miss Loretta” is a tribute to one of her heroes, Loretta Lynn.

Carly has never met Loretta, but says she thinks they have a few things in common so she wrote, “Dear Miss Loretta” and decided to debut it at the Grand Ole Opry last Saturday night.

Carly says, “We have a lot and common, and I think over the last year and a half I’ve understood her songs, and the way that she told her truth, a lot more than I ever thought I would. So, Loretta, hopefully I can ask you all this in person someday, but for now, I’ll sing it to you.”

With an acoustic guitar in hand, Carly started singing…

“Dear Miss Loretta, we both grew up too fast / And I wish you could tell me how you made it last” it continues, “I ain’t a coal miners’ daughter, but I’ve sung it all my life / I ain’t been a widow, but I’ve been an ex-wife / And I hear your truth and I feel your pain / Now I know why you sing that way / I know why you sing that way.”

Even though Carly just released her latest album “29” last month, she says “Dear Miss Loretta” may be a sneak at even MORE new music to come this summer.

Watch her performance at the Grand Ole Opry.
