I was born in Illinois, partially raised in Florida, now live in Colorado, but much of my family history are from the backwoods Missouri. The town my Grandpa Gray was born and raised, not far from Branson, no longer exists. In fact the only things that remain are the Grays’ cemetery (it has no name, but that’s what I call it), foundation parts, and pieces of wood sticking up from the ground amongst the forest. The Ozarks and Hulls Ford will always have a special place in my heart!
Amazing that after 40 years of living in high end condos, hotels, limozeens, mansions and seeing all the world she can still write such good mountain music!
I live in Africa 🇹🇿 Tanzania iss my home. We have a mountain Kilimanjaro is the. Most talked on earth. But lv this song lv dolly parton songs. She is such a qween of the country music 💕💕💕🥰
I Had A Grandmother Who Grew Up In Mountains In Palmer Tennessee I Just Makes Me Think of Her I enjoyed That Time With Her Talking About Her Young Days .
Dolly, come look at "Our Mountains" in the Coal River Valley of WV and see what they have done to them, and our people. Won't you please come to West Virginia?
I'm from the Philippines but my heart pulled me here. I'm totally don't have any idea why i'm landed here.. I wonder what is behind all of these in my past..
Oh my Lord what a beautiful song sung by Dolly I have not heard this before, and would that beautiful place where she performed the song be where she was born ?😍💕
I was just reminded yesterday of my mountains place in my my heart. Standard my there in a mountain river. Breathing in the mountain air and soaken up the cool mountain water.
I wanted to go to the Carolina s when I got back from Nam. Personal problems regarding my Brother's suicide prevented me from making such a move. I was ready to settle down, get married and start up a family. Good thing I stayed out west. I bet everyone in that group knows what "Hillbilly Heroine" is. This country is in a much bigger crisis. Opioids. Right now it is My Sierras, My Great Basin, My Reno., My Carson River. I was stationed at Ft. Bragg. I started to make friends in the community. They begged me to come back when I got back from Nam. My youth in So-Cal sucked.

Eric Anderson that's because unlike most celebrities SHE has truly NEVER EVER forgotten where she grew up at! This is why I admire her so much
she would throw it all away for being a normal grandmother, she wont even be a mother, but sure as hell she had alot of D. Xd
My ringtone for 5+ months & counting. One of the best voices country lovers has & will ever have. May God continue giving her good health.
This is a brilliant song by a most beautiful and gifted woman Dolly is a great writer and so loving of her mountains and her people and her fans

Never heard this song by Dolly before, but love it!
This is so special to me. We (my family) have visited all of the cabins in Cades Cove in the Smokey Mountains. Most of these cabins are in Cades Cove.
Special to me, too. Had been also there ... from Germany.
Across the Big Blue Pond.
A great preservation of the human past in the Smokies.

Ohh my oh my why did i take long to listen to these beautiful song about nature?its beautiful
Walk in beauty Dolly Parton ❤
Best country singers of all times, greatest attachment to her childhoods coat of many colors and petals smelling sweet ❤️
The beauty of nature, healthwise, spiritually, ...is better imagined than expressed. I dedicate this track to God who made all things possible...
Glad to see Elk back in the Smokies. Great job Dolly.
Dolly, come look at "Our Mountains" in the Coal River Valley of WV and see what they have done to them, and our people. Won't you please come to West Virginia?
I've been collecting Dollys music forever and I can't find this tune. Was it ever recorded for the public? I LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!!!
i would love to find the chords to this song so i can sing it ...
It's only on the Sha-kon-o-hey cd that was only sold at Dollywood in 2009
This is a real gem. I’m listening to it on Apple Music, her live album titled “Heartsongs”.
I'm from the Philippines but my heart pulled me here. I'm totally don't have any idea why i'm landed here.. I wonder what is behind all of these in my past..
Beautiful riches and fame will never change dolly a true mountain girl. God bless you sweet heart.
God bless you Dolly 🙏
MY FAVORITE PLACE TO GO. SMOKY MOUNTAINS.

I look at Dolly and am like the is actually the one who enjoys her songs best, perhaps more than us. And am sure she doesn't care.
Very amazing. Great

Hate to be a wet blanket here but Smoky N.P. is the only park where the staff was rude.
We have been going to the Smoky Mountains for over 60 years and NEVER NEVER have we ever encountered anyone RUDE of any of the “
Staff anywhere.
