Perhaps the most controversial song of Loretta Lynn's career, "The Pill" was banned by many radio stations due to it's risqué subject matter, but physicians would later tell Loretta that her song had done more to highlight the availability of birth control in isolated, rural areas than all the literature medical organizations had released.

Loretta Lynn had 14 songs banned during her legendary career because of controversial subjects such as birth control ("The Pill"), repeated childbirth ("One's on the Way"), double standards for men and women ("Rated "X""), and being widowed by the draft during the Vietnam War ("Dear Uncle Sam").

President Obama awarded Loretta the Presidential Medal of Freedom in 2013, acknowledging her legacy of "courageously breaking barriers in an industry long dominated by men."

"Dear Uncle Sam" was one of the first country singles that dared to broach the subject of the Vietnam War. The song, which peaked at No. 4 on the Billboard Hot Country Singles chart, is told from the perspective of a woman who has just been widowed by the war.
