[Doralee]
Somethin' gotcha down?
Gotcha chained and bound?

[Doralee, Judy & Violet]
Well break it

[Doralee]
If you built a wall
And you know it needs to fall

[Doralee, Judy & Violet]
Then shake it

[Doralee]
Somethin' that you know
Is damin' up the flow
Tear the damn dam down
Let me explain it...

If you don't take the reins
It's gonna stay the same

[Doralee, Judy & Violet]
Nothin's gonna change
If you don't change it!

[Judy]
Something on your mind
Is nagging all the time
Then nix it

[Violet]
Something in your life
Isn't sitting right
Then fix it

[Doralee]
If you've lost your place
Somethin' in your face
All the do-da day
And you can't name it

[All]
That something in your cut
That's got you in a rut

[Doralee, Judy & Violet]
You're made of better stuff
And you can change it

[All]
Change it!

[Doralee]
You don't want your little light to never shine!

[All]
Change it!

[Doralee]
Turn it up on bright and get your
Goals in line...

[All]
Let it shine!

There's a great new world out there
For those who care to claim it
A better day is on the way
But only you can

[Group #1]
Change it...

[Group #2]
Change it...

[Group #3]
You can change

[Group #1]
Change it...

[Group #2]
Change it...

[Group #3]
You can change

[All]
You can change it!
Come on and make a change!

[Group #1]
Change it...

[Group #2]
You can change

[Group #1]
You can change it...

[Group #3]
You can

[All]
Change it!
You can change...
Stand up
Grab a-hold
Give everything you've got!

[Doralee]
When the road is dark and cold
Walk on...
Fearing not...

[All]
Get your life in order!

[Doralee]
Clean house and rearrange it!

[All]
Rearrange it

[Doralee]
Here we are, we've come so far
Committed now
To tear the damn dam down...

[All]
And change it!

Dolly Parton

Dolly Rebecca Parton (born January 19, 1946) is an American singer-songwriter, multi-instrumentalist, actress, author, and philanthropist, best known for her work in country music

Beginning her career as a child performer, Parton issued a few modestly successful singles from 1959 through the mid-1960s, showcasing her distinctive soprano voice. She came to greater prominence in 1967 as a featured performer on singer Porter Wagoner’s weekly television program; their first duet single, a cover of Tom Paxton’s “The Last Thing on My Mind”, was a top-ten hit on the country singles charts, and led to several successful albums before they ended their partnership in 1974. Moving towards mainstream pop music, Parton’s 1977 single “Here You Come Again” was a success on both the country and pop charts. A string of pop-country hits followed into the mid-1980s, the most successful being her 1981 hit 9 to 5" (from the film of the same name), and her 1983 duet with Kenny Rogers “Islands in the Stream”, both of which topped the U.S. pop and country singles charts. A pair of albums recorded with Linda Ronstadt and Emmylou Harris were among her later successes. In the late 1990s, Parton returned to classic country/bluegrass with a series of acclaimed recordings
