Intro
Verse 1
She Was Raised In A Cabin In The Hills Of Tennessee,
Poor As There Ever Was And A Future Only She Could See,
Her Daddy Worked The Fields, Her Mama Taught Her Songs,
And She Learned To Keep On Singing Even When The Hard Times Came Along.
She Picked Up That Old Guitar, Put Her Story Into The Strings,
No One Knew That Little Mountain Girl Would Change Everything,
But She Packed Up All She Had And Headed Down That Road,
With A Suitcase Full Of Dreams And A Heart Full Of Hope.
Chorus
She Carried That Lo-Ve Wherever She Went,
In Every Word She Wrote And Every Message She Sent,
She Never Forgot The Hands That Raised Her,
Or The Little House Where It All Began.
From A Dirt Road Dream To A Broadway Name,
She Became The App-Alatchian Queen
Verse 2
She Found Her Way To Nashville With A Song And A Prayer,
Made A Place At The Table.. Where Most Women Wouldn't Dare,
She Found A Little Fame, Then She Found A Whole Lot More,
But She Never Forgot The People She'd Been Singing For.
Chorus
She Carried That Lo-Ve Wherever She Went,
In Every Word She Wrote And Every Message She Sent,
She Never Forgot The Hands That Raised Her,
Or The Little House Where It All Began.
From A Dirt Road Dream To A Broadway Name,
She Became The App-Alatchian Queen
Bridge
She Gave A Child A Chance, Gave A Stranger Some Hope,
Gave A Little Bit Of Love To Help Somebody Cope,
And When The World Got Bigger Than That Mountain Home,
She Made Sure She Was Never Ever Gone Too Long.
Final Chorus
She Brought Her Heart Wherever She Played,
In Every Word She Wro-Te And Every Note She Sang,
Never Forgot The Hands That Raised Her,
Or The Little House Where It All Began.
From A Dirt Road Dream To A Broadway Name,
She Became The Appa-Latchian Queen
[Slow Outro}
And The Smoky Mountains Will Cry Those Tears Of Pain,
And Every Little Tennessee Town’s Church Bell Will Ring,
For That Little Girl Who Changed The World With Just A Dream..
Thank You, Miss Dolly... Our **Appa-Latchian Queen**.
