The Letter - Dolly Parton (多莉·帕顿)[00:00:00]
This is the first letter that[00:00:00]
I wrote back home to mom and daddy[00:00:01]
A few days after I'd moved to Nashville[00:00:03]
June 2nd 1964 Nashville Tennesee[00:00:07]
Dear mom and daddy[00:00:12]
I hope this letter finds everybody well and happy[00:00:13]
As for me I'm fine I guess I'm just a little lonesome[00:00:17]
A whole lot homesick[00:00:21]
I got to Nashville OK[00:00:23]
I thought I'd better write and let you know[00:00:25]
Cause I knew you'd be worried about me[00:00:27]
And I don't let you know to worried about me[00:00:30]
Cause I'm gonna be alright[00:00:31]
Once I get settled and used to bein' away from home[00:00:33]
I didn't realize how much I loved you[00:00:36]
And all them noisy kids until I left[00:00:39]
And I didn't reaize how hard it was to eave home eiter[00:00:42]
Till I started to leave and everybody started cryin' includin' me[00:00:45]
I cried almost all the way to Nashville[00:00:50]
And I wanted to turn around a few times and come back[00:00:53]
But you know how bad I've always wanted to go to Nashville[00:00:56]
And be a singer and songwriter[00:00:59]
And I believe that if I try long enough[00:01:01]
And hard enough that someday I'll make it[00:01:03]
Don't worry about tryin' to send me any money or anything[00:01:06]
Cause I've got a job singin' on the early morning television show[00:01:09]
Here called the Eddie Hill Show[00:01:12]
And a couple of folks already told me[00:01:14]
That they might record a couple of my songs[00:01:16]
So I'll be makin' enough money to get by[00:01:18]
And I don't want you to worryin' about me bein' hungry or anything[00:01:20]
Nashville's not exactly what I thought it was gonna be[00:01:25]
But I believe I'm gonna like it here once I get used to it[00:01:28]
And I don't want you to worryin' about me gettin' in trouble either[00:01:32]
Cause I'll be good just like I promised you I would when I left[00:01:35]
Well can't think of anything else to say[00:01:39]
I guess I'd better close for now[00:01:42]
And you write me real soon[00:01:44]
And tell everybody I said hello[00:01:46]
And I'm gonna be real anxious to hear from you[00:01:47]
Cause I sure miss you and I love you an awful lot[00:01:50]
With love as always Dolly[00:01:53]
