Verse 2
A little girl with sky-high hopes
Found her way beyond those mountain roads
She packed up her dreams and headed down
On a bus bound for Nashville town
With a voice like nobody had heard before
And a laugh so genuine and true
She knew what she wanted and followed her heart
And built a world that everyone knew

Chorus
From hard dirt floors to Nashville boards
She carried her dreams through every door
With a guitar in her hands and a song in her heart
She knew from the beginning she'd go somewhere far
She never forgot the love she came from
Or the little cabin where it all begun
From hard dirt floors to Nashville boards
She turned her life into something more

Verse 3
Then the bright lights found her waiting there
With a country song and long golden hair
Guitar in hand and those famous nails
High-heeled shoes and rhinestone trails
She found her place and sang her songs
She finally knew where she belonged
And underneath the glitter and fame
She never forgot from where she came

Bridge
And every song she gave the world
Carried a little of that mountain girl
Every note and every rhyme
Held a piece of another time
The people, the laughter, the simple days
The ones who stood beside her all the way
No matter how far the road carried her on
She never forgot where she came from

Verse 4
She left this world a better place
Her songs and life have made their mark
Beyond the voice and sky-high hair
The long nails and the gentle laugh
Every song she ever penned
Will live through history and beyond
Her love and legacy will carry on
In every heart that sings her songs

Final Chorus
From hard dirt floors to Nashville boards
She carried her dreams through every door
With a guitar in her hands and a song in her heart
She showed us all how dreams can start
She never forgot the love she came from
Or the little cabin where it all begun
From hard dirt floors to Nashville boards
She gave the world her heart through every song

Outro
From a little cabin in Tennessee
To a world that sings her melodies
The lights may shine and the crowds may roar
But she'll always belong to those dirt floors
From hard dirt floors...
To Nashville boards.
Her songs will echo forevermore
Dolly lives on forevermore.
