When I grow up, I wanna be like Dolly Parton Hand out books to the ones they left forgotten
Love for life, now this ain't just talkin' Yeah, I still look to God when I'm at the bottom
When I grow up, I wanna be like Dolly Parton Stayin' strong like my mama out in the garden
Sun shines down when you're feelin' it Then the devil shows up, that's a deal or hit
In your homeroom class in another zone Ain't no tellin' when you tellin' when you comin' 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, now this ain't just talkin' 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 chasin' When I still talk to God, when I think that I made it
Catchin' things, I've been lookin' back at it Remember when you ripped that pretty dress?
Tragic, in the rain we were gettin' wet But time goes by, ain't no changin' that
Look at the stars if you need to see I saw the road, it's a two -way street
Do you believe what you pledge to bet? Time goes by, ain't no changin' that
When I grow up, I wanna be like Dolly Parton Hand out books to the ones they left forgotten
Love for life, now this ain't just talkin' 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, now this ain't just talkin' Yeah, I still look to God when I'm at the bottom
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
