Dolly Parton

When I grow up, I wanna be like Dolly Parton

Hand out books to the ones they left, forgotten

Love for life, no, this ain't just talking

Yeah, I still look to God when I'm at the bottom

When I grow up, I wanna be like Dolly Parton

Stand strong like my mama out in the garden

Sun shines down when you're feeling it

Then the Devil shows up, that's a dealer hit

In your homeroom class, in another zone

Ain't no telling when you tell 'em when you're coming home

Then you come right back with another face

You can face those demons another day

When I grow up, I wanna be like Dolly Parton

Hand out books to the ones they left, forgotten

Love for life, no, this ain't just talking

Yeah, I still look to God when I'm at the bottom

When I grow up, I wanna see some innovation

See the blood from my own damn formulation

But listen up, sometimes, it ain't worth chasing

Will I still talk to God when I think that I've made it?

Catching things, I've been looking back at it

Remember when you ripped that pretty dress? Tragic

In the rain, we were getting wet

Time goes by, ain't no changing that

Look at the stars if you need to see

I saw the road, it's a two-way street

Do you believe, would you place a bet?

Time goes by, ain't no changing that

When I grow up, I wanna be like Dolly Parton

Hand out books to the ones they left, forgotten

Love for life, no, this ain't just talking

Yeah, I still look to God when I'm at the bottom

When I grow up, I wanna be like Dolly Parton

Hand out books to the ones they left, forgotten

Love for life, no, this ain't just talking

Yeah, I still look to God when I'm at the bottom
