Hello, Dolly,
this is Louis, Dolly,
it's so nice to have you back where you belong.
You're lookin' swell, Dolly,
I can tell, Dolly,
you're still glowin', you're still crowin'
you're still goin' strong.
I feel the room swayin'
while the band's playin'
one of our old favourite songs
from way back when.
So take her wrap, fellas,
find her an empty lap, fellas.
Dolly'll never go away again.
I feel the room swayin'
while the band keeps on playin'
one of our old favourite songs
from way back when.
So, golly, gee, fellas,
have a little faith in me, fellas,
Dolly'll never go away,
I said she'll never go away,
Dolly'll never go away again.
