Parton co-wrote the autobiographical title tune with friend and fellow songwriter Mac Davis. She recorded songs by popular Nashville tunesmiths such as Diana Rae, Jim Rushing, Wayland Patton, and Karen Staley.

I just write about whatever I’m feeling at the time or whatever I’m going through.” It’s harder for me to write songs that are not as true to myself and my own personality. That’s why some of the songs on this album White Limozeen are a little special. I can still write country better than anything and that’s something that never left me. Also, I think my writing gets better because my life is more involved. “I’ve improved just by growing older and living.

#THE THRILL LYRICS BY COB TV#
“Then I started playing guitar and writing serious when I was about seven and I started singing on radio and TV when I was 10. I had this little doll that Daddy had burnt poker holes for eyes in and momma put the corn silk back on it and made a dress. I wrote a song called “Little Tiny Tassle Top” about a little corn cob doll I had because we didn’t have store-bought toys. I would just always write songs about things that I understood and I could always rhyme things. “My first song I wrote before I could write,” she recalls.

#THE THRILL LYRICS BY COB MOVIE#

Though the personal satisfaction Parton gets from penning tunes is the most important part of writing to her, she also has more than a few tangible rewards for her efforts. Songwriting is a hobby and to me it’s therapy. It’s like a feeling of creating, not that the same stories ain’t been told before, but it ain’t been told through my point of view. I love getting on a big writing binge and staying up a couple days working on song and knowing at the end of those two or three days that I’ve created something that was never in the world before. “Parton doesn’t perceive songwriting to be just another way to make money in her career. It’s an ability that I have and I’ve always loved being able to express myself.”
That’s my way of speaking for myself and speaking for life the way I see it. “I’ve always prided myself as a songwriter more than anything else. “It’s number one,” she responded enthusiastically when asked, on a scale of one to ten, how important her songwriting was to her career. Of all the many facets of her career, however, songwriting is nearest and dearest to her heart. As a singer, songwriter and actress she has carved a successful niche for herself in the entertainment community. It’s no secret that Dolly Parton is a woman of many talents.
