[Chorus]
When I grow up I wanna be like Dolly Parton
Hand out books to the ones they left forgotten
Love for life, no this ain't just talkin'
I still look to God when I'm at the bottom

[Verse]
When I grow up I wanna be like Dolly Parton
Stand strong like my mama out in the garden
Sun shines down when you're feeling it
Then the devil shows up, that's a dealer hit
In your home room class in another zone
Ain't no telling, ain't no telling when you're coming home
Then you come right back with another face
You can face those demons another day

[Chorus]
When I grow up I wanna be like Dolly Parton
Hand out books to the ones they left forgotten
Love for life, no this ain't just talkin'
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'
Will I still talk to God, when I think that I've made it?

[Bridge]
Catching things I've been looking back at it
Remember when you ripped that pretty dress, tragic
In the rain, we were getting wet, yeah
Time goes by, ain't no changing that
Look at the stars if you need to see
I saw the road, it's a two way street
Do you believe? Would you place a bet?
Time goes by, ain't no changing that

[Chorus]
When I grow up I wanna be like Dolly Parton
Hand out books to the ones they left forgotten
Love for life, no this ain't just talkin'
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
