Dolly Parton reacted to Beyonce‘s rendition of her 1973 hit Jolene for her country album Cowboy Carter on Friday.

The blonde bombshell was over the moon for the Single Ladies songstress as she penned a note in support of her venture into a new genre.

‘Wow, I just heard Jolene,’ started the country icon. ‘Beyonce is giving that girl trouble and she deserves it.’

The 78-year-old starlet shared her delight in the mother-of-three’s turn to country as the album officially dropped on Thursday.

This comes as the R&B star made major tweaks to the original lyrics that gave the song an edgy and modern feel.

In Beyonce’s version, she instead sang: ‘You’re beautiful beyond compare/Takes more than beauty and seductive stares/To come between a family and a happy man.’

‘Jolene I’m a woman too/The games you are playing are nothing new/So you don’t want no heat with me, Jolene,’ she further warned.

As the star transitioned into the chorus once again, the lyrics also included: ‘I’m warning you woman, find you your own man/Jolene, I know I’m a queen, Jolene/I’m still a Creole banjee b***h from Louisiana (Don’t try me).’

Towards the end of the second verse, Beyonce added lyrics to show that she had the confidence her man would stay by her side.

‘Good deeds roll in like tumbling weeds/I sleep good happy, cause you can’t dig up our planted seeds/I know my man’s gon’ stand by me breathing in my gentle breeze.’

The cover concluded with a bridge as the songstress was joined by a choir as they belted out: ‘I crossed those valleys, highs and lows and everything between/Good deeds roll in like tumbling weeds.’

Beyonce then briefly sang in the perspective of her man and sang, ‘I’ma stand by her/She gon’ stand by me/Jolene I’ma stand by him/He gon’ stand by me Jolene.’

Earlier this month, Dolly hinted that the singer may have covered Jolene and gave her thoughts during an interview with Knox News.

‘Well, I think she has! I think she’s recorded Jolene and I think it’s probably gonna be on her country album, which I’m very excited about that,’ the Here You Come Again hitmaker stated.

Dolly added, ‘Just someone that can take my little songs and make them like powerhouses

She also gushed, ‘I love her! She’s a beautiful girl and a great singer. We’ve kind of sent messages back and forth through the years.’

‘And she and her mother were like fans, and I was always touched that they were fans, and I always thought she was great.’

Back in 2022, Parton had expressed her wish for Beyonce to cover her track Jolene. While on The Daily Show With Trevor Noah, she stated, ‘I think she’s fantastic and beautiful, and I love her music.’

‘I would just love to hear Jolene done in just a big way, kind of like how Whitney [Houston] did my I Will Always Love You.’

Dolly added, ‘Just someone that can take my little songs and make them like powerhouses. That would be a marvelous day in my life if she ever does do Jolene.’

Several people posted on X how much they liked how Beyonce in her version warned Jolene to stay away from her man instead of begging her to keep her distance.

When the full song was released fans went wild on social media as one penned, ‘This is why Dolly Parton wanted her to sing it.

Another brought up the lyric changes. ‘Oh so instead of begging Jolene like the original she warning for her own safety. I LOVE THE FLIP.’
