Dolly Parton
recorded 1982


Hey, maybe I'll dye my hair,
Maybe I'll move somewhere.
Maybe I'll get a car,
Maybe I'll drive so far
They'll all lose track.
Me, I'll bounce right back!

Maybe I'll sleep real late,
Maybe I'll lose some weight.
Maybe I'll clear my junk,
Maybe I'll just get drunk
On apple wine.

Me, I'll be just fine and dandy,
Lord it's like a hard candy Christmas!
I'm barely gettin' through tomorrow,
But still I won't let sorrow
Bring me way down.

I'll be just fine and dandy,
Lord it's like a hard candy Christmas!
I'm barely gettin' through tomorrow,
But still I won't let sorrow
Bring me way down.

Hey, maybe I'll learn to sew,
Maybe I'll just lie low.
Maybe I'll hit the bars,
Maybe I'll count the stars
Until the dawn.
Me, I will go on!

Maybe I'll settle down,
Maybe I'll just leave town.
Maybe I'll have some fun,
Maybe I'll meet someone
And make him mine!

Me, I'll be just fine and dandy,
Lord it's like a hard candy Christmas!
I'm barely gettin' through tomorrow,
But still I won't let sorrow
Bring me way down.

I'll be just fine and dandy,
Lord it's like a hard candy Christmas!
I'm barely gettin' through tomorrow,
But still I won't let sorrow
Bring me way down.

I'll be fine and dandy,
Lord it's like a hard candy Christmas!
I'm barely gettin' through tomorrow,
But still I won't let sorrow
Bring me way down,
'Cause I'll be fine!
(I'll be fine)
Oh I'll be fine!
