That was Kenny Rogers with her.

You can see Dolly Parton tonight on the Grammy Awards here on CBS, but first she sharing memories with our Tony Dick Opal way.

We've all been singing along with Dolly for decades.

What way?

But if you want to know the truth about Dolly Parton, know this she works way more than just a 9 to 5 come in here looking like that.

Even with 1/2 century of music behind her, you come glitzy, big haired queen of country glamour is still at it 24 7 Still writing her legacy One song at a time.

It's my therapy model guitars, my friend, When I'm in that zone I call it my God zone I just loved that time So please don't even mention the our world to this 73 year old.

Yeah, people always say that.

Why don't you retire, sir, and do block?

What do you What does that even mean?

Sit on your power, money and awards and I don't care.

I always count my blessings more and I got my money.

I don't work for money.

Never did.

I just wanted It was the art.

It was the job.

I love the work and I've done well and I'm thankful for it.

On Friday, the music industry said thank you to her.

Join Jolie.

Ah, star studded celebration of part Theo.

She's the Grammys.

2019 MusiCares Person of the Year, an honor not only for her music but for her charity work like Parton's Imagination Library in Literacy program, she started which males more than a 1,000,000 free books each month to Children under five.

We thought maybe it might do good in our county, maybe a couple counties over.

But now we're all over the world and we've given 100 million books away.

I'm just proud that as anything I've ever done.

But these were all from the sixties when I first started, and she's also proud of her peerless wardrobe.

When I put it on, it looks cheaper.

Now, on display at the Grammy Museum in Los Angeles, this feels like the epitome of the Dolly Parton look.

Well, it iss and this kind of I love being flashing.

I love kind of showing the parts of me that that I've become famous for and try to do it.

In his good taste, dollies open about nearly everything, including her cosmetic surgery.

But as she sings in her song Backwoods Barbie, Don't go back.

Don't be fooled by thinking that the goods are not all there.

It is true that I I look artificial, but I believe that I'm totally real and not look is really based on the country girl's idea of glam.

I wasn't naturally pretty, so I make the most of any thing I've gone.

Hold on a second.

I'm telling you.

No, you were not naturally pretty?

No, I've seen the pictures.

Dolly.

I'm sorry you should see me this morning for you, but I'm serious, though.

I'm not like a natural beauty, but I can enhance it.

Whatever.

Whatever it takes, I do.

I try to make the most of everything to me that it's hard to argue with.

You need a reminder.

Parton has sold more than 100 million albums, one a shelf full of Grammys and written thousands of songs, including That's Right I Will Always Love You was a 1974 hit parts on a 1992 sensation for Whitney Houston in the Bodyguard.

Does it ever bother you that people think that's Whitney Houston song?

No, I always say she could have the credit because I get my cash.

It's a good line, and Dolly Parton is full of them.

When other people want to make a joke or make a comment, you make the comment better than they ever could.

Well, I guess some of that is kind of always just you know what they're thinking.

So you want to do it, too, But I'm also funny.

So should we do a couple of them for the fans, I guess.

OK, Dolly, how long does it take for you to do your hair?

I wouldn't know.

I'm never there.

Dahlia.

Are they really?

Are there really expensive?

Real big.

How do you want people to remember you?

100 years from now, I'll learn to say, God, don't she look good for her age?

You have humor was a help where Parton grew up on the fourth of 12 Children in World Tennessee.

I wrote a song years ago called in the Good old Days, when times were bad on said no amount of money could buy from me memories that I have no amount of money paid me to go back live to head again.

Music made everything a little brighter When I started writing these songs, my mom was really impressed with how I could write around the songs at such an early age.

And she would say, Oh, honey, don't get that guitar out.

You to sing them and should say to people I want you to hear this song this little thing wrote.

And so I thought I'd get a whole lot of attention now.

So I think that kind of encouraged it.

But also, I love the sound of that music.

I love the sound of the instruments.

I love being able to create something.

And it gave me a little space in the little world of my own that I could just live in and be creative in.

And how early did did you realize this is more than just a dream?

This is gonna be my profession.

This is a job, I guess I was about 10 years old the first time that my uncle took me to sing in front of an audience and it was when they kept clapping, clapping After I had finished my song that I thought that, you know, it felt I felt something.

I thought, you know, I was scared and nervous.

I'm country Look, kid, but when I got that applause and got that feeling is when I thought, This is what I think I'm I'm gonna do in my Tennessee She moved to Nashville, and soon she was singing before a national audience on the Porter Wagoner show.

One night after a performance, she met a young fan, and I remember this little redheaded girl with green eyes, pretty soul thing.

And I said, Well, what's your name?

And she said, Jolene, I said, Well, I love that name All the way back to the flash was doing.

Doing doing what?

Forget the night.

Your beauty is beyond compare with flaming locks.

She gave the name to another redhead.

She knew a bank teller who flirted with her husband.

Carl.

Theme song helped launch part in solo career.

And don't worry, she is still happily married.

But as she jumped from country to pop toe Hollywood, the couple never did get around to having Children.

Is that a regret no absolutely knows that at some point, it wasn't meant to be.

And I don't regret it.

I never regretted it.

There was a choice.

So you make your choices, you make your sacrifices.

And I never looked back.

I knew early on that I was gonna walk that road till God told me to stop.

And I'm still walking it.

And he said nothing to me about putting it tumble out of bed and stumble to the kitchen for myself.

A couple.

In fact, she's going back for more, including a sequel to her classic 1980 films 9 to 5.

If you touch that phone, I'm gonna jerk it clean out of the wall.

Her character, Doorly got the best of abuses Male boss and in the eyes of some became a feminist hero.

Let me loose from calling for help.

No, I don't want eyes.

That a word feminist that you apply to yourself.

Well, I guess I am, but I don't think of it in like they do.

I'm just I'm a feminine girl.

I'm a working girl.

I think we all should be treated with respect.

And if we do a good job, we should get paid for it, so I'm all about that.

Well, Mom told a story from the Bible she had read about Dolly Parton has written more than 3000 songs, and she says her favorite is this one.

A coat of many colors.

Theo Story of a poor kid from the Great Smoky Mountains who learned early on what really matters in my coat.

She just got a better day.

I could take forever.
