The song is about her upbringing in Butcher Hollow, Kentucky, where she grew up in rural poverty. Lynn identifies herself as the offspring of a coal mining parent in the song's lyrics. Her dad, she explained, was also a farmer who grew corn. Lynn spoke about her mom, as well as her dad, and how she fought tirelessly on household chores like washing clothes. Following verses remember Lynn's other childhood memories and struggles, such as her mom quoting the Bible by a coal-oil lamp or getting dirty fingers from doing chores with a wash panel on a regular basis.
