Miss Mona (Dolly Parton) runs the Chicken Ranch, a brothel with a long history in a small Texas town. The locals have a good relationship with the institution, and Mona is respected in the community.

The Whitney Houston cover is so epic and impressive, but when Dolly sings this, its just so beautiful and moving. Always my favorite!
Heather Rose this came out before Whitney’s version
Taylor Reisdorph yes she said Whitney’s was a cover, dolly released this in 1974 and sung it in the movie best little whorehouse in Texas
Heather Rose because It’s Dolly’s song. Whitney Houston was a wonderful singer . But when you write a song 10 years ago and put into a movie. God Bless Dolly.
Heather Rose. Yes, Dolly's version always brings me to tears. Nobody else can do that.
Whitney's version changes the timing of the chorus phrasing, and honestly I think it's an improvement. It is very impressive though that Dolly wrote this herself!
For those now hearing Dolly sing it for the first time, please be aware that this is only part of the full song that she originally recorded back in 1974. For the sake of this scene, it was cut short but it's really worth listening to the full original recording.
Just did. Thanks.
I feel old reading these comments I remember dolly on the Porter Wagner show
@@davidhodgson2025 The song is about Porter Wagner when she split from their career together.
@@sharonjames-hilyer2747 it was a great move for dolly and everyone’s else
Actually she recorded the sing twice in 1974 & for this movie soundtrack & it reached #1 on the country chart twice.
I listen Whitney's version to marvel at her vocal strength and listen Dolly's to connect with my own emotions.
Me 2
Girl say it louder
Perfectly said!
It’s because Dolly wrote it herself from a very real emotional place. Whitney is great but this will always be Dolly’s song.
@Diane Berg exactly this!! I didn’t realize how moving the lyrics were until I heard Dolly’s version.
Anyone hear this play at weddings and be like 'Ya'll know this is about a break-up, right???'
Actually Dolly wrote this song for Porter Wagnor. He got Dolly started in her fame and she wanted to do her own thing after I think 12 years and they was dedicated to Porter saying she was moving on to her own record deal without his name in it.
@@stephaniediaz7568 Basically like a professional breakup!
It’s about her break up with her business manager.
It's not a breakup scene. She tries to break up with him, he goes, gets her bags, then comes back and carries her off.
Stephanie Diaz you tell him miss Diaz I saw her live in Australia she explained how it pissed her off because Porter Wagner would only allow her to sing it if he produced it probably her biggest money maker.
Ed Earl didn’t give a damn what people said about her. He truly loved Miss Mona, and that love was genuine.
And they both ended up as one of the best cute little couples in Texas
it was so romantic
@@ams147 it wasn’t that romantic in real life. Miss Edna and Sheriff Jim were not lovers. The sheriff was married and in his 70s. Miss Edna was in her 40s.
Facts
Yup Ed didn’t care one bit more people had gone through Miss Moana than the Brooklyn tunnel.
It's a shame Dolly and Whitney never did a duet
Roxann Poor Oh my god, RIGHT?!
Yes they did
I wanna watch it someday
Dolly tried but Whitney was busy smoking crack that day
With the wonders of modern technology they still can. Natalie Cole sang with her Dad 20+ years after he died.
Dolly gives such sincerity to this performance
I love Whitney’s version but Dollys will always be my favorite because she wrote it and you can hear the love and heartbreak behind it in every note she sings.
Whitney better
You took the words right out of my mouth!
Dolly is a national treasure!! We are blessed to be able to see her performances, there will never be another like her!
It makes me feel old when most o the people commenting on here are just learning that Dolly Parton wrote this. I remember hearing her version on the radio as a kid (my parents listened to Country Music) and I was 21 when Whitney Houston's version came out.
I was almost 19 when Whitney's cover came out, so I know exactly what you mean!
I was 20 when she released it in 1992.
Me too! 😉
I’m only 20 but I’ve known this was Dollys song since I was a child. My grandmother and my mother adore Dolly Parton and raised me the same way. I’ve always loved the Dolly version more than the Whitney cover, it’s always made me feel more emotion than the Whitney version (which is also amazing, they’re both such phenomenal singers)
I loved that song and knew it off by heart years before The Bodyguard and Whitney's cover came out. Whitney certainly does it justice with the power of her voice, but I'll always prefer Dolly singing the song, particularly here where she puts so much meaning into it. Brings tears to my eyes every time.
Fun fact: Dolly also wrote the other duet between herself and Burt in the movie - 'Sneakin' Around'.
Didn't know that. It's a good song too.
She is credited as writing over 700 songs. Not really surprising she had a hand in writing most of the songs in the movie.
Can't believe my mom let me go see this by myself at 14 while she went to go see another movie. Awwwww the 80's.
And it took practically a snuff film to get a R rating in the 80s too lol I cant believe they let 14 year olds in the door. They ask for ID now. Well, sometimes...like when you look 14.
I remember watching this on cable with my conservative, Depression - era grandparents when I was about 7 years old. 😂
😂😂❤
Damm Whitney Houston’s version was beautiful and defied what most people can do but something about Dolly’s rendition of the song just does something to the heart strings
Because it’s her own so g
That's because Dolly sang the song with her heart. Whitney's rendition, while technically more perfect, just doesn't have the emotions that Dolly put into both versions of her song. Even Kristin Chenoweth's new cover, while pretty, doesn't have nearly the emotion that Dolly's versions do.
Batlover Sings that’s because it’s her song... she wrote it for her ex lover 🥺
@@nevaehkalise9921 Ex partner in the music business...Porter Waggoner...they were never lovers.
@@nevaehkalise9921 no she wrote it for Porter Wagner who wasn't her lover, but got her started on TV.
Whitney’s cover is impressive. However, when Dolly sings it, it’s so emotional and sweet.
& Whitney doesn’t?)
Man when hes striding back up the path to her, looking all determined and strong, after putting her stuff in the trunk 😍 that's the stuff of fantasies right there
Literally. I’d love a man like Ed Earl.
Let's NOT FORGET that DOLLY had her song #1 TWICE before Whitney recorded it. I LOVE both of their versions, but Whitney's is a THEATRICAL SHOWPIECE, while DOLLY'S IS A TRUE LOVE SONG! DOLLY for the rest of time!!
meboneme1 It’s possible to appreciate both versions for what they are
Jennifer
Dolly's version is about moving on in life and Whitney Houston's is about moving on in love
Also worth a mention is that Dolly loved the Whitney version.
I always cry when she sings this song in the movie.
Hello 🖐Barbara, how are you doing, how is everything over there?
Her ability to express emotion in her vocals is unmatched as far as I'm concerned.
I love that scene so much. It makes me tear up every dang time.
The best ending in movie history.
Tears are in my eyes listening to it now
This version is just so heartbreaking, it’s just beautiful
I love Whitneys version so powerful. Dolly sings it in a way that pulls at your heartstrings, because she sings it because she ment it when she wrote it, at the time she was working with Porter Wagoner and she wanted to go solo, but Porter wouldnt listen so she wrote this song. I will never be able to choose.
To those who linger onto any love, always remember it's always a gain in life, never a loss, to love someone. Those moments when you spend your time with someone are golden minutes, rays of sunshine, that make you forget you're alone.
Fun Fact Dolly Parton Is The Original Maker Ôf This Song
Learning new things
Yep I think 1974
She wrote it to say goodbye to Porter Wagoner when she was on his show.
Fun fact: i worked on Hitman, but nobody cares.
Drunk history
Whitney was a powerhouse, but that’s not necessarily what was needed for this song. Dolly is a legend and will always be!
Love the both. Dolly music Queen and Queen Whitney rest well
I couldn't agree more.
So much more natural and heart felt a rendition.
Its her song
Dolly Parton is the only one that can sing this song with so much heartfelt emotion. Just like Judy Garland singing "Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas."
And Eartha Kitt singing 'Santa Baby'.
considering it is HER song, of course Dolly will have more emotion when she sings it. Whitey had more power in her version of it.
😂😂
In Monuments Men, the "Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas" was absolutely outstanding. It's worth watching just for that. I'll never forget it.
Stop smoking crack, its affecting your mind!!🤣🤣
A masterclass in how to put raw emotion into a song just impossible to beat and what a graet ending.
Damn Burt Reynolds was hot as hell.
shar skyes R.I.P. Burt Reynolds, that silly handsome hunk will be missed 😇😤😪
He really was very handsome.
Happy Birthday Burt. He would've been 84 today. He had "IT", no doubt about it!
Definitely!!!!!!!
shar skyes He’s ok-don’t exaggerate
Whitney Houston did a brilliant rendition of this song, but I'll always think of Dolly whoever sings it.
So this song is originally from this movie and the bodyguard's version is a remake? (Mind Blown) and what a coincidence that the best whorehouse in Texas came ten years before the Bodyguard. (1982-1992). 💥😮
@@philipmancera5796 Yep Dolly didn't mind Whitney singing her song in the movie as she says people can sing my songs all they want I just want my money lol gotta hand it to Dolly gal doesn't beat around the bush she's all business
@@philipmancera5796 Actually this song was written and recorded by Dolly back in 1974, where it reached Number 1 on the Country Music Charts. When Dolly was cast in the film adaptation of the stage show 'Best Little Whorehouse in Texas', they added the song - I guess because it fitted so well. Dolly was okay with Whitney's later cover because she ended up making at least $10 million from it. Good business decision!
This scene makes me ugly cry 😭😭😭 these two did amazing in the movie!
I cry every time
HERE AFTER THE TRISHA PAYTAS COVER! HAPPY HOLIDAYS 2021
Whitney Houston's vocals on this song are nothing less than brilliant. Who can hear it without marveling at her depth, her range, her phrasing, her mastery of every note? And yet, when Dolly sings the song she wrote, it just clutches your heart, it brings a tear. There is no substitute for the genuine emotion she brings to the song she composed. Her subtler heartfelt rendition - to me - is even more powerful than the soaring voice of Whitney Houston.
Hello 🖐Lisa, how are you doing, how is everything over there?
💖Dolly Parton sings it the best! I think of Dolly when I hear this song. Geesh, I think me & my mom watched this movie a thousand times! I loved her & Ed Earl ( Burt) .
Dom Deluise was a trip with that pumpkin pie hair piece he wore! Lol 🤣 Good ole days!
Dolly is in a class all her own -- so beautiful and talented!
This is and will forever be my favorite rendition of this song!
Dolly wrote it. NOt whitney
I have heard many renditions of this song but the fact is that Dolly makes this song become alive. I find her ability as a singer, song writer, and performer to be unsurpassed.
Love Whitneys version, I always will! Dolly's version for some reason, has a more heartfelt/heartbreaking ring to it! Love them both!
Yep. Whitney's voice had the power, but Dolly's voice has the emotion
Dolly's version was more real. She wrote the song, made it come to life. I find it shocking that very few people are aware that Dolly wrote and performed this song first.
Rip burt Reynolds.
She is just so amazing. That quivering sweet voice gets my heart strings EVERY TIME!!🥰❤️
I am an old Southern Lady. Dolly wrote that song to Porter Wagner. Dolly was on his show . I remember it being shown in Alabama. Dolly was leaving Porter Wagner’s show. Dolly knew what to do. But, Porter Wagner gave Dolly her start. If y’all ever want to think Southern People are stupid, shame on y’all. This is Dolly’s song to Porter Wagner.when Whitney Houston sang this song in the movie, please remember that Elvis wanted to buy the rights to the song. But Dolly said NO. This I’m your song, young people please remember that there are people trailing the path for you.
Why did she sell it to whitney and not elvis? Whitney's movie offer more money? Seems a southern woman would want to sell it to a fellow southern man...but hey, dolly isn't rich af for no reason.
This is the very first time, after hearing the Whitney version at least one thousand times, that this song truly touched me. Honestly felt it at "cause we both know I'm not what you need".
Trisha got me here
Dolly will always reign supreme when it comes to this song.. So much emotion
This is my favorite. The way she sang it here, such angst in her voice. Great movie too.
This movie is not what some people think
It is an epic love story, a beautiful thing.
@3:25 Dolly Parton flashes the cutest damn side-eye.
Well, now, I feel old reading all the comments and seeing how many people didn't know that Whitney Houston's cover was a . . . well, cover! LOL
I love this version of this because her heart is in it. I am always glad that Ed Earl loves her!! One of favorite movies!
Smiles and hugs🤗🤗🤗😘, the song is beautiful love it, how are you doing?
She has an amazing voice
Dolly's version is addictive in it's raw emotion even if it isn't as popular as whitney's.
This was her best version of the song. Bless her heart!! I chose this version to remind my mom with eternal love I have for her.
Hello 🖐Anne, how are you doing, how is everything over there?
I have such tremendous love and admiration for Dolly!! This clip had me crying for two separate reasons. The first because it is a moving song. II was Burt Reynolds determination when he came stomping back up the path to claim his woman LMAO
Hello 🖐Jennifer, how are you doing, how is everything over there?
Ed Earl is A+. The best way to react to the love of your life being upset thinking there’s no way they could be good enough for you.
POV you’re here from trishas video
Why doesn’t this have 10 Million views or more????
March 2021-- this just hits my heart so different than anything else, always will.
March 25 2020 I lost my sweet daddy to Covid-19.😪 I love him so much & he absolutely loved Dolly's rendition of this and so do i💗
So tonight as I sit here with great big warm tears falling down my cheeks, with an absolute shattered heart listening to this thinking of my sweet daddy, I feel a tiny bit of comfort knowing I'm enjoying something very beautiful that he also loved and enjoyed.
Dolly, for that I thank you.
Wish you all the peace, love and GOOD HEALTH in the world. May you never be left alone in this world suddenly.
**Beautiful song**
I watched this at about 12 years old and sobbed! Lol. Tore my baby heart up...even though I had zero clue what a whole house was 😂
Hello 🖐Jacin, how are you doing, how is everything over there?
I heard this on the radio not long ago, and started crying my eyes out.
I love this song so much.I listened to it so much when my heart was broken, knowing I would never see him again ♥️♥️♥️
Her voice is so sweet and calm
The song was written by Dolly as a breakup song of sorts. It was a professional breakup with Porter Wagoner. She appeared on his show for about five years singing solo and duets with Wagoner. They started having professional arguments because she wanted to go out on her own, but he wasn't ready to let her go from the show. He was being very stubborn about it, so she wrote the song and came back into the office and sang it for him. Porter, overcome with emotion said, 'Well, hell! If you feel that strong about it, just go on - providing I get to produce that record because that's the best song you ever wrote.'" After Dolly left the show, Wagoner produced her Album Jolene with this song on it. Dolly would later sing this song in the movie The Best Little Whorehouse in Texas in a scene with the late and great Burt Reynolds.
To quote the late Paul Harvey, “Now you know…the rest of the story.”
I love this woman...❤
Hello 🖐April, how are you doing, how is everything over there?
Rest In Peace Ed earl Burt Reynolds
I was only 10 when I watched this TV movie and I fell in love with this song, so much that when I found the soundtrack cassette at the music store, I purchased it right away. I did a double take when I heard Whitney sing those first few words. She did the song justice, but the original, this one broke my heart, stole it and made me cry.🥲 My 18 year old daughter loves correcting & telling everyone that it’s Dolly’s song. Thank you Dolly for gifting us with such wonderful and beautiful songs... God bless...❤️
Hello 🖐Sophia, how are you doing, how is everything over there?
Shes so beautiful in this scene, second only to the beauty of her singing this song.
Dolly is such an insane talent I will always love her
Though the Epic Brinold Brownswagger version gets me in the feels, this pales in comparison to the awesome might that his version brings forth as if from the heavens! His might will live on!! Brinold's songs cure cancer!!
Beautiful song! I will always love it
Hello 🖐Heather, how are you doing, how is everything over there?
The original song and by far the best version.
This sweet Lady is SOLID GOLD!
Ed Earl and Miss Mona truly loved eachother but they were scared of what everyone would think if their relationship was public. So what I say is love is love, you can't change that, love who you want to love who gives a crap about how other or what other people think/view your relationship, do what make you happy stick with it. When Ed Earl gave up his dream for the love of his life, it goes to show, you'll have so many opportunities life will throw your way, but there is only one person you'll truly, truly love and you can't let them go.
Dolly Song the heck out that Song it was so Emotion I could Listen to this song all day
"Well, a lot of people say that's Whitney's song, and I always say, 'That's fine, she can have the credit, I just want my cash." ~Dolly Parton, badass businesswoman
This movie makes me think of my mother, I miss watching these classics with her. Also, Miss Mona & Sheriff Ed Earl are goals af lol.
GOD BLESS YOU I BET YOUR MOMMA IS PROUD OF YOU!
Dolly's songs that she wrote and produced worked so well in this movie. I didn't see this movie in the theater but I liked these songs when I saw this movie on TV a few years later.
One of the best endings in a love story.. 😭❤💙💜😇🙏🥰😚
Agreed. I’d love to be scooped up like that❤️❤️
The first time I heard this, I nearly sobbed at how beautiful this song is.
Out of all the ways this song has been sung...this is my favorite of all deleverys...
One of my very favorite songs
That truck and her outfit are KILLER!!
I haven't even seen this movie just clips amdbi already started to tear up lol. Her voice is something else
trust me just watch the movie already
Every film she graces becomes a gem. She is just magnificent, an honor to behold. I love this film and I love, LOVE ALL of her. ❤❤❤❤
Now just imagine being Burt Reynolds - the first person this song was ever sung to
Hello 🖐Valerie, how are you doing, how is everything over there?
My daddy passed away this Halloween 2021 and this was his favorite Dolly song. Every time I hear it now I cry and think of him ♥️💔😭
One of my favourite movies
Same.
Forever classic!!!!! Love this movie and songs
Greatest love song ever written!
I have to agree with a lot of the other comments, Whitney sang it amazingly but this was sung with heart and it’s far more amazing...x
Burt Reynolds is awesome
Whitney's performance is superior from a purely technical standpoint, but her version loses all the tenderness and heartbreak of the original.
Dolly sounds so sad and so *exhausted*, like she's just so tired of pretending everything is OK. She sounds like she's going to burst into tears any second.
The best version of the song its lovely
Hello 🖐Beautiful, how are you doing, how is everything over there?
I will always love this song. Thanks. Merry Christmas to all.
Who else is here from Trisha Paytas’ cover
The OG made me cry even more.
I love the way Dolly Parton does every scene she performs in. I have seen a lot of her movies and every song that she made appears in all her move. From 9 to 5 too hard candy Christmas Simply Beautiful thank you so much. Dolly Parton and God bless you.
Hello 🖐Kathryn, how are you doing, how is everything over there?
Amazing song, that it has two very different versions, both of which are so powerful!
Dolly Parton sings it so tenderly that it makes you almost want to cry
This was the last song my mother sang to me before she died. It still makes me cry. TY for sharing this.
I love this film. Pure classic Burt.
0:40
Mona: (sings) If I should stay, I would only be in your way. So I'll go, but I know I'll think of you each step of the way, and I will always love you. I will always love you. Bittersweet memories, that's all I am taking with me. Goodbye. Please don't cry. We both know that I'm not what you need, but I will always love you. I will always love you
When Whitney Houston sings this song I don't cry. When Dolly Parton sings it; I do. Maybe it's the movie...
Same here.
