Wanda Jackson, on why she always traveled with her father to performances: “It was very important that my reputation stay intact. And I’m sure that was probably the main reason that he traveled with me. So I wasn’t able to ever go from city to city in the car with Elvis. You know, Dad had to drive me; I had to be in my car. And, you know, he didn’t allow me to sit on someone’s lap, and I couldn’t lay my head on someone’s shoulder if I was sleepy and they were riding with us, you know. And he was pretty strict in those things. But it did keep my reputation intact.”
