[Intro]
Well I've got two lovers and I ain't ashamed
Two lovers and I love them both the same

[Verse 1]
Let me tell you 'bout my first lover
He's sweet and kind, he's mine all mine
He treats me good like a lover should
And makes me love him
I really really love him
Oh oh oh oh I love him so
And I'll do everything I can
To let him know

[Interlude]
But I've got two lovers and I ain't ashamed
Two lovers and I love them both the same

[Verse 2]
Let me tell you 'bout my other lover
You know he treats me bad, he makes me sad
He makes me cry but still I can't deny
That I love him
I really really love him
Oh oh oh oh I love him so
And I'll do everything I can
To let him know

[Verse 3]
Oh but darling, well
Don't you know that I can tell
Whenever I look at you
That you think that I'm untrue
'Cause I said that I love two
But I really really do

[Bridge]
'Cause you're a split personality
And in reality
Both of them are you

[Outro]
But I've got two lovers and I ain't ashamed
Two lovers and I love them both the same
I've got two lovers but I ain't ashamed
'Cause both of them are you
I've got two lovers and I ain't ashamed, no
Two lovers and I love them both the same
I've got two lovers, two lovers
And both of them are you

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
