This is why I love Dolly Parton so much. Only Dolly could record this kind of song: "Evening Shade."

Between the babies born dead, the little kids dying, the daddies that drink or work their fingers to the bone for next to nothing, you never know what you're going to get from Dolly. Obviously, this is one of her older works, and I'm not even sure if she wrote it--(a quick check of www.allmusic.com shows that she did, in fact write it)--but it's just classic Dolly.

And on that same CD is another doozy..."Daddy's Moonshine Still."

Read it and weep--or laugh your ass off. God bless Dolly Parton.
