(hmmmmm) Down in Tennessee where the pine trees grow She had a
voice like gold and a heart like home
Sang her stories to the front-row light
Left us walking in her wake tonight
Oh, Dolly was one of the very best Now she's taking her
eternal rest
But the music lives and the stories spin Yeah,
she
went down a legend in the end
(went down a legend)
With a coat of many colors and a mountain smile
She walked our dusty roads for a long,
long while
Now the stage is quiet
but the rafters ring
To the sweet country hymns that she used to sing
Oh,
Dolly was one of the very best Now she's taking her
eternal rest
But the music lives and the stories spin Yeah,
she
went down a legend in the end
(went down a legend) She went down a legend
Yeah, she did (oh,
Dolly)
