I said hello, dolly,......well, hello, dolly 
It’s so nice to have you back where you belong 
You’re lookin’ swell, dolly.......i can tell, dolly 
You’re still glowin’...you’re still crowin’...you’re still goin’ strong 
I feel that room swayin’......while the band’s playin’ 
One of your old favourite songs from way back when 
So..... take her wrap, fellas.......find her an empty lap, fellas 
Dolly’ll never go away again

Dolly’ll never go away....i said she’ll never go away
