If I put that smile next a solar panel, our energy crisis will be solved
She is like the sunshine and goodness of God's spirit condensed into a petite woman. I love her so much
SOOOOO right Wissam! Can only she's as nice and sweet in private than she is on the outside!!!!!
Right !! I'm young bit this woman is absolute gold ✨
Good 1...
Amen!!!!!!!!!!!
I’m literally befuddled at the level of talent in this woman. She’s an absolute star. And I love the fact she conducts herself as such. What an amazing human being.
If you check out the word "star" in a dictionary, there should be a picture of Miss Parton.
Me too! Ridiculous talent...just natural born and stunning in every way
A little hard on the eyes tho
That’s as close as it gets to American royalty, except it wasn’t inherited, it was earned. Class act that has given so much back in addition to her music. Love you Dolly and as a 35 year old man, still would.
Listening to Dolly Parton's America brought me here 💕
Me too. :) I love that woman so much
SAME 😀
Same. What an amazing artist. I liked Dolly before this podcast - now I totally love her. 😍🧡💙❤️💜💛🖤
The Fendermen always did this song the way it was written
Ditto
I just came acroos this on the Ken Burns County Music series...put a big smile on my face!!
Me too. My family used to sing this in the early 80's. They've all passed on now so this is a sentimental song for me ❤️❤️❤️❤️
How many of us can say Ken Burns on PBS brought you here!
I can !! Made me like Country Music all over again. Made me Happy!
Dolly! You saaaaang & yodeled that song!
Yodel
YayHeeeeeeeeeehe hehehehehe Yeah !!
I will freely admit his documentary brought me to look up the footage. As the first night's credits rolled and this song/version played, I sat up and was awestruck!! Gives me goosebumps listening to it ever since...
I’m with you! The program was superb and Dolly Parton gave me chills singing Mule Skinner Blues.
Same! I can't get over how good so much of this music is and the people so bright and genuine.
ABSOLUTELY the Ken Burns PBS documentary brought me here. I'm 52 and use to HATE country music with a passion. Ken Burns and his meticulous research has made me PROUD. God bless Mr. Burns and his painstaking research to make this all possible. "Good morning to you sir!!"
yep
Always makes me feel like smiling and my feet tapping
Hello how are you doing today 😊😊
They tried to induct her into the Rock and Roll hall of fame. She didn't think she'd earned that honor, and politely declined. INTEGRITY.
It was too late. Voting ballots had already been mailed out. So when she was voted in, Dolly graciously accepted. She had thought only rock stars were members. Once Dolly was told there were members who weren't rock either, it made her see the issue differently. Her friends Brenda Lee and Wanda Jackson were already members.
What a difficult song to sing and she makes it look effortless! A tremendous talent and a beautiful soul!
A voice as smooth as honey, laughter that dances in your ears, and a smile that could melt an iceberg; she is incredible!
love Dolly's cute little laugh in the beginning
hey hey 0:35 -I think the *laugh* is part of a *yodel* hee hee hee hee hee hee
I never realized how much I liked country music until I watched Ken Burns new documentary. And Jimmie Rogers was deep. Long live Jimmie Rogers.
I've been watching too, really enjoy it
That's what great about America.How all people came together to create beauty. Jazz rhythm and blues folk bluegrass = country.
I'm here from Ken Burns also. I'm a songwriter and I'm embarassed to say I did not know Jimmy Rogers. Well, that's something that won't happen again! I think I need to cover a Jimmy Rogers song, if I can. Dolly has got such a voice on this, and the guitarist is tearing this up!
I loved it too, at least until the Elvis segment where they omitted the fact that he owed his success to Otis Blackwell!
Had the pleasure of knowing and working with Jimmie Dale Court, Jimmie Rogers's grandson before he also passed. A very talented musician who relished his background and musical roots, Jimmie Dales carried on his grandfather's love of music, performance and song writing and he played at the various annual Jimmie Rogers festivals across the country and at the Kerrville Folk Festival here in Texas. I remember one time out at his Bee Creek studio while the band was rehearsing I was dancing with one of the musicians girlfriends on the basketball half court next to the studio and got a little too frisky and she farted on my hand. Only in Texas. That's true story.
I could stare at this woman all day. Absolutely beautiful, talented woman.
She is one vibrant life.
That woman really has a beautiful voice.
She's the whole package, looks, talent, and as beautiful inside as out.
They don't make em that anymore that's for sure ☺️
This is why she is the queen of Tenessese. long live Miss Dolly.
she was actually born in cuba and smuggled to miami as a baba. i have the evidence. the journey was paid for in diamonds. rare austrian squirrel diamonds.
I am a country girl in japan. 😂and i love dolly! i wish i could sing like her. I love her coz she smiles like sun itself.! shinning always!Her blight smile makes me smile always! I can smile like her but can't sing like her. . yet. ! but i wanna try!
Rose _dollhouse_singer “I love her coz she smiles like sun itself.” Amen. Well said.
Her bashful expression during the faltered yodel cracked me up! Oh the perils of NOT lip-synching! On the subject of NOT lip-synching: she's amazing in concert. Total, powerful vocal control with the sweetest sound on record.
She's unspeakably great. The studio version of this song has to be one of the best in recorded music history, in any genre.
A thing of the past. A REAL singer and performer. Almost forgot what they looked like.
That Yodel! Dolly, you never cease to amaze me with that voice that has laughter, sunshine and ease in it. I came here because of your singing in the closing credits of Ken Burns' film on country music. Much love!
Same here! I hadn’t heard this before and had to look it up. Great song
LOL....I'm doing the exact same!! Am just amazed and in awe!!
Same here! Can’t go wrong with Dolly or Ken Burns specials.
I just watched Ken Burn's documentasry. Yes, it was great. I knew little about Jimmy Rogers but will seek him out more often since. What a talent and trailblazer.
P.S. Yodelling ain't easy.
+1
What a class act, i think we all agree we want her to be the spokesperson of earth
Born natural. Gifted. All she has to do is just turn up and start singing and what follows is magic.
I've heard a lot of ppl sing this song, some of the most well known and respected ppl in the music business...but in MY opinion...NO ONE can sing this song like Dolly...she just NAILS it every time!
When I was a little black kid growing up in Philly, I lovvveeddd Hee Haw! Especially because they would sing these type of songs! Dolly i think was too big to be on Hee Haw by the time i started watching in the late 70s, I always wished she'd do thesr type of songs... So this is amazing!! If u haven't watched Country Music by Ken Burns, you're missing maybe the top 3 documentaries of all time! I don't even regularly listen to Country, and I loved every second of it!! And Dolly was hella cute, goodness lol
Steve Phil2010 I really miss the ‘70’s for that reason. The ‘60’s too. I was a little white kid in Australia, but back then colour didn’t matter, it was all about the music. And as a musician I owe sooo much to brilliant black artists, but back in the ‘60’s and ‘70’s we all worked together, and appreciated each other’s talents. I do miss that.
Just love her
The best Mule Skinner Blues done by Rhonda Vincent
@@garysorenson7138 great version but I much prefer the tony rice one
Don't hate me but who's Ken burns?
her voice is just heavenly.
Thanks for watching Maddie.
Never my style of music but Dolly is tremendous. What a national - no, international treasure.
The song she's singing is Canadian, so appropriate
That yodel sends chills up the spine. Dolly is a national treasure.
I would like to thank Country Music PBS and Ken Burns for introducing me to this and many other great songs. It's a wonderful documentary about country music I highly recommend. Dolly Parton is a national treasure.
Arthur Warnock Thanks!! I didn’t know anything about the documentary! Just LOVE Dolly’s music. Grew up watching these shows but didn’t really appreciate the amazing talent!
@@helenjohnson7583 I have to word's of advice for you. "WATCH IT!!'
What can you say? Dolly killed it!! Great song
A mule?
Dolly Parton is fantastic. Her voice is happiness and charisma.
I'll just put this out there ,Dolly has the biggest heart in the world and is an absolute National treasure !
🙋 Me too! Thank you Ken Burns and PBS. And Dolly, you are SO beloved! ..... Don't ever die.
Ken Burns brought me here ! Damn, she can sing some Mule Skinner Blues ! 💮🍃
Hot Damn! Almost makes me wish I was a mule! Dolly is one of a kind...never imitated, never duplicated.
😂 Best comment! I'm a straight female, and have a total crush on Dolly. How can you not?
Porter Wagner and Dolly were a joy to wathch. Buck Owens, Roy Clark....
This song is scorching hot - Dolly rips this song like she owns it. Stunning!
Dolly is simply the best ❤
Hello how are you doing today
I agree 100%. She makes it seem so natural and easy. She is a great talent.
OMG! That lady has some lungs on her. Excellent performance! She is an angel!
I think Dolly Parton is one of the most important women in the modern music era. Strong, beautiful, talented and honest. Hard to find those qualities these days. She is really underrated if you look at the span of her career and level of influence.
An American masterpiece. Dolly forever.
There's never going to be another DOLLY !!!!.I JUST LOVE HER. She is the sweetest woman I know.
Dolly Parton is a national treasure. It’s that simple.
International treasure
DOLLY PARTON'S AMERICA!!! Jad says in an interview this was the first song she broke through the mold of the show & truly owned. She had a very narrowly defined role being the backup pretty girl to Waggoner. The way she carried that long note in the opening "morning" was like, I'm big and here, shining loud and the band is gonna follow along with me and my timing. Her face when she adds the lyric "lady mule skinner" to a well-known classic. This isn't even a genre I thought I liked but I could listen all day. Her delivery is so powerful and so gold. The moment her star is born.
There's a reason She's a legend. I remember seeing this at My grandparent's house when it aired.
LOVE Dolly ! ! !
Thank you. Dolly is definitely a legend.
what a great song. Thats real country music. Everybody in country music should sing Jimmi Rogers songs.
A lot of them have.
Dolly never fails to bring an extraordinary performance. And my goodness, her yodeling was impeccable! ❤️❤️❤️Dolly❤️❤️❤️
I've noticed that the most talented entertainers are beautiful too like Dolly and Elvis and Lolly Vegas.
My favorite rendition 🤩
who doesn't luv Dolly
God Bless Dolly...
We're blessed to have had the chance to enjoy this beautiful Lady in our Lifetime...
Ahhhhhh real music by real musicians without autotune.
I have nothing but respect for this wonderful women she was given a gift and has shared her wealth helping others! Thank You Dolly!!
*woman
She always makes it look so easy, so effortless. Amazing.
Dolly #1
I CANNOT get this song out of my head!
How in the hell did I miss out on this gem? And I’m a native Nashvillian! 😍
I missed it too, and I thought I knew Dolly's music. Shame on me. This is incredible!! I re-love her...if that's a word. LOL
So gorgeous,.and that hair!!! lol,../,.and all that TALENT,.I mean NO ONE ON any of these talent shows on TV stick out like this,.NO ONE
OMG, Dolly Parton! AMAZING TALENT!!!! AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!! LOVE!
I was looking for another version and this one popped up. Almost skipped over it, but glad I didn’t. What a voice.
This is my favorite version of Mule Skinner Blues
Thanks for watching my video and also your comment. Dolly nails it pretty good.
Hey Samm1909, you can't go wrong with the other renditions. The original works for sure, but Ms. Parton feminine touch and her flair does it for me personally. It's all a matter of what does it for the individual ear. They're all good and lyrics take you back to a time when folk worked and hard. Thanks again!

Same. The way she sings "hey hey" gives me chills. What an amazing human being.
Who don't love Dolly..she's great
I watched the ‘Porter Waggoner Show’ every weekend with my grandparents in South Texas. I saw this live, I’m sure. Dolly was way more talented than he was. Incredible.
Dolly can do that Mule Skinner Bules for sure
Hits those notes spot on. Never slides into a pitch!!!
Kind of a country music hater, but there are some shining exceptions and Dolly is definitely one of them
What a natural talent and beauty.
God was having a good day.
Only real god given talent shines like that!
She was a star from day 1, smiling all the way, and never looked back. What an extraordinary woman who came from deep poverty.
What a queen, her songs makes me feel good.. thanks for posting.!!!
What a Southern Belle !
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
She has a precision perfect pitch which nobody else has!
I love her yodeling!! Beautiful, Dolly, Song and singer!!
Hello how are you doing 😊😊
Certified Boss Status 😎 ✨️ 💥 There is Nothing This Woman Can't Do . She Has Built An Empire 💛🎼
This is my favorite version of the song. But it is hard to NOT like anything Dolly sings. From this song to I Will Always Love You, Coat of Many Colors, Hard Candy Christmas, and Jolene.
Dolly is an iconic figure from my youth. Loved Country music from that era.
Pretty, smart, talented, and loads of personality.
Dolly does this song proud! And with a great big beautiful smile, just like she does everything :)
Good on you Dolly. Full of sunshine as always.
It just don’t get much better than that.
AAA Awesome Awesome, Authentic
I played this very loudly outside my kids door to wake them up this morning.
It worked and I've hit a new high of obnoxious mother 👍
One of the best singers ever.
Pure class 👏
Durch Dolly strahlt Gott wie die Sonne auf die Menschen ❤
My favorite song with Dolly Parton
I didn't think that a woman could be that gorgeous and that talented at the same time.
i love her so much. She is not the queen of Country, she is MY queen of the World
I saw an interview with her, where she never thought she was pretty enough. God, is she adorable here. Look at the joy in her smile when she sings. Just beautiful.
long live Dolly!!!!1
Talent personified
Back in the day this was the song that made me a fan of Dolly Parton way back in 1970. All these years later, my respect for her continues to grow. If you haven't heard them yet, I recommend Dolly's cover of The Story, a song by Brandi Carlyle, and her cover of Purple Rain on her 2023 rock album Rockstar.
I'm a yankee from NJ.
Ken Burns brought me here.
Oh Lord them Yankees are invading again!
She's just great especially this song .
Hello how are you doing 😊😊
She is a real down to earth person and loves and respects all her fans. I have never been to any of her concerts. You were very fortunate to have spent so much time talking with her. Congratulations and thanks for your comment.
Simply FANTASTIC !
Dolly should be declared a national treasure.
Dolly Parton great show great job 👏
She had a powerful voice to go along with that genuine personality. One of the most likeable and relatable singers/songwriters/performers in country/popular music history.
There hasn't been a more attractive woman to ever live than Dolly in the 60s and 70s. Whole package.
