[Intro: Dolly Parton]

Mhm, mm

Mm, mm

[Verse 1: Dolly Parton]

All of these years and my life is still

Just tryin' to get up that great big hill of hope

For a destination

I realized quickly when I knew I should

That the world was made up by this brotherhood of man

For whatever that means

[Pre-Chorus: Dolly Parton]

And so I cry sometimes when I'm lyin' in bed

Just to get it all out, what's in my head

And I, I'm feelin' a little peculiar

And so I wake up in the mornin' and I step outside

And I take a deep breath and I get real high

And I scream at the top of my lungs, "What's goin' on?"

[Chorus: Dolly Parton, Dolly Parton & Linda Perry]

And then I say, "Hey, yeah, yeah, hey

Hey, yеah, yeah"

I say, "Hey

What's goin' on?"

Then I say, "Hеy, yeah, yeah, hey

Hey, yeah, yeah"

I say, "Hey

What's goin' on?"

[Post-Chorus: Dolly Parton]

Mhm, mm

Mhm

[Verse 2: Dolly Parton]

And I try

Oh my God, do I try

I try all the time

In this institution

And I pray

Oh my God, do I pray

I pray every single day

For a resolution

[Pre-Chorus: Dolly Parton, Dolly Parton & Linda Perry]

And so I cry sometimes when I'm lyin' in bed

Just to get it all out, what's in my head

And I, I'm feelin' a little peculiar

And so I wake up in the mornin' and I step outside

And I take a deep breath and I get real high

And I scream at the top of my lungs, "What's goin' on?"

[Chorus: Dolly Parton, Dolly Parton & Linda Perry]

And then I say, "Hey, yeah, yeah, hey

Hey, yeah, yeah"

I say, "Hey

What's goin' on?"

Then I say, "Hey, yeah, yeah, hey

Hey, yeah, yeah"

I say, "Hey

What's goin' on?"

[Bridge: Dolly Parton]

Mm, mm

Mm

[Chorus: Dolly Parton, Dolly Parton & Linda Perry]

Then I say, "Hey, yeah, yeah, hey

Hey, yeah, yeah"

I say, "Hey

What's goin' on?"

Then I say, "Hey, yeah, yeah, hey" (Oh, no, no, no, no, no)

"Hey, yeah, yeah" (Hey, yeah, yeah)

I say, "Hey

What's goin' on?"

[Outro: Dolly Parton]

After all these years, my life is still

Tryin' to get up that great big hill of hope

For a destination
