Dolly Parton - Lonely Comin’ Down (1972)

Dolly Parton - Lonely Comin’ Down (1972)

As the title of the LP suggests, this was written by Porter Wagoner. Porter released his own version in 1971, but after favoring that rendition, I’ve come to conclusion that Dolly’s is the definitive recording.

The presence of you, still lingered, all around


I know I dont really post enough Dolly as artists go she isa unique voice and talent and rotes a mean tune too from playing with Emmylou and Doc Watson she needs no greater accolades but sometime the image overwhelms and you forget too easily she can sing and more importantly write a fair song also

Why sort of ‘comin’ down' is she talking about here? Don’t think its Sunday Morning Coming Down a la Kris
