[Chorus]
I really got the feeling that I'll love you for a long long time
I felt it from the moment we met, you didn't ask me my sign
I love my daddy, but it really don't matter what my daddy might say
I really got the feeling that I'll love you 'til my dying day

[Verse 1]
You're a gentleman
And a gentleman is getting mighty hard to find these days
And you're a tender man
And you're man enough to show your love and tender ways

[Chorus]
I really got the feeling that I'll love you for a long long time
I felt it from the moment we met, you didn't ask me my sign
I love my daddy, but it really don't matter what my daddy might say
I really got the feeling that I'll love you 'til my dying day

[Verse 2]
I love those silly things you do
You make me feel once more like an innocent child of two

[Chorus]
I really got the feeling that I'll love you for a long long time
I felt it from the moment we met, you didn't ask me my sign
I love my daddy, but it really don't matter what my daddy might say
I really got the feeling that I'll love you 'til my dying day

[Outro]
I really got the feeling, got the feeling
I really got the feeling, got the feeling
I really got the feeling that I'll love you 'til my dying day

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
