Her music career has been ongoing for over 50 years, and she is best known for the songs 'Tears Will Be the Chaser for Your Wine', 'Fujiyama Mama', 'Heart Trouble', and 'I Remember Elvis'. She worked closely with Elvis Presley and has garnered admiration from artists including Bob Dylan and Bruce Springsteen.
