Greatest Hits is the first compilation album by American country music artist Lee Ann Womack, released on May 4, 2004 by MCA Nashville. It was Womack's first release issued on both the DualDisc and Super Audio CD formats, both of which were issued the following year. The compilation includes eleven of Womack's previous songs, including her sole number one on the Billboard Hot Country Songs chart "I Hope You Dance" with Sons of the Desert. One of those, "Does My Ring Burn Your Finger", was re-worked for this compilation. Also included is her duet with Willie Nelson, "Mendocino County Line", which was included on Nelson's 50th studio album The Great Divide (2002), but had only been included on the UK edition of Womack's fourth studio album Something Worth Leaving Behind (2002).

Two new songs were specifically recorded for the compilation: "The Wrong Girl" and "Time for Me to Go". The former was released as the compilation's sole single on February 17, 2004, where it peaked at number 24 on the US Hot Country Singles & Tracks chart. The compilation was a commercial success, debuting at number two on the Top Country Albums chart. It has been certified Gold by the RIAA for sales of 500,000 copies.
