Dolly Parton - The Letter текст песни

Текст песни The Letter - Dolly Parton



This is the first letter that I wrote back home to Momma and Daddy a few days after I′d moved to Nashville
June 2, 1964
Nashville, Tennessee
Dear Momma and Daddy
I hope this letter finds everybody well and happy
As for me, I'm fine I guess
I′m just a little lonesome and a whole lot homesick
I got to Nashville okay and I thought
I'd better write and let you know 'cause I knew you′d be worried about me
And I don′t want you to be worried about me
'Cause I′m gonna be alright once I get settled and used to being away from home
I didn't realize how much I loved you and all them noisy kids until I left
And I didn′t realize how hard it was to leave home either til I started to leave and everybody started crying, including me
I cried almost all the way to Nashville and I wanted to turn around a few times and come back
But you know how bad I've always wanted to go to Nashville and be a singer and songwriter
And I believe that if I try long enough and hard enough that someday I′ll make it
Don't worry about trying to sending me any money or anything
'Cause I′ve got a job singing on the early morning television show here called the Eddie Hill Show
A couple of folks already told me that they might record a couple of my songs
So I′ll be making enough money to get by and I don't want you worrying about me being hungry or anything
Nashville is not exactly what I thought it was gonna be, but I believe I′m gonna like it here once I get used to it
And I don't want you worrying about me getting in trouble either cause I′ll be good just like I promised you I would when I left
Well, can't think of anything else to say
I guess I′d better close for now
You write me real soon
Tell everybody I said hello and I'm gonna be real anxious to hear from you 'cause I sure miss you and I love you an awful lot
With love as always
-Dolly
