Doctors, needles, needles, pins
They've come to poke on me again
Seems like these treatments never end
But I'll be better soon
Sometimes these treatments make me mad
Make my Mom and Daddy sad
Sometimes they make me feel so bad
But I'll be better soon

'Cause I'm a Chemo Hero (yeah, yeah)
And that's a fact. (yeah, yeah)
I'm a Chemo Hero (yeah, yeah)
I'm fightin' back. (yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)

Sisters, brothers, cousins, friends
They're fightin' with me 'til the end
It's a battle we know we can win
That makes them heroes, too

We're Chemo Heroes (yeah, yeah)
'Cause we're helpin' out (yeah, yeah)
We're Chemo Heroes (yeah, yeah)
That's what love's about (yeah, yeah)
Yeah, yeah, everybody shout... yeah, yeah

Bad cells, bad cells
We gotta get rid of these bad cells
I'm a Chemo Hero, we're gonna get rid of 'em
Yes, we are

Lost my hair, but I don't care
Lots of scarves and hats to wear
I'm a Chemo Hero. (yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah yeah)
But, you know, o'l fuzzy wuzzy was a bear
And fussy wuzzy had no hair
He was a Chemo Hero, that's right.... yeah, yeah

I'm a Chemo Hero (yeah, yeah)
And that's a fact (yeah, yeah)
I'm Chemo Hero (yeah, yeah)
And I'm fightin' back (yeah, yeah)
I'm a Chemo Hero (yeah, yeah)
And that's a fact (yeah, yeah)
I'm a Chemo Hero (yeah, yeah)
Everybody shout (yeah, yeah)
(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
I'm a hero

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
