Thanks for Reading,

Dolly Parton on The Johnny Carson Show Surprised him. She said, "You've been so good to me I wrote you a song."

Got out her Guitar. Played it for him Right There.
Live on TV.

What you Might Not know.

Dolly wanted to leave the "Porter Wagoner Show." Had big Dreams. Wanted to Grow Beyond the Country and Western niche.

But had a Contract. And Porter said, "No."

So she wrote song.

Played it for him in his office. Just the Two of them.

Porter Cried.

Then said, "If you let me produce the Record. Put it on our Next Album together. I'll let you leave."

"I will Always Love You" went to #1 on The Charts.

The Rest of The Story...

"Dolly let Kevin Costner use her song for his Movie, "The BodyGuard."

"Whitney Houston" sang it. And it hit #1 On The Hot 100 Charts. World Wide.

And Dolly still shows off her Check for 1 million Bucks.
As what she was paid as the owner and author.

Thanks,
Glenn
