Having Dolly as you idol only means you have the utmost highest stsndards. Im 50 and remember listening to Gypsy, Joe,and Me when I was four. Dolly had been this old mans idol since I was a todler. Been to Dollywood and she even played in new orleans(my city) five years ago on my birthday. I spent 800$ in tickets so all my closest friends could come with me and celebrate. Was badass!

This song was mine and my brother Sean's favorite song when we were little. We would sitbin front of the 8 track player and listen to it all day. On 11/24/2000 he called me the first time he ever remembered my birthday on my birthday and he had found and played this song for me. The reason that I remember the year is it was the last year he was alive for my birthday. He was killed in a motorcycle accident 4/21/2001. So this song now holds even more special meaning for me. Thank you Dolly for all that you have and continue to due. Sean and I always loved you!
