Dolly Parton just absolutely smashed a 'Jolene' version of the distracted boyfriend meme
Dolly Parton just weighed in on the distracted boyfriend meme and, well, she absolutely smashed it.
The singer and all-round legend tweeted a meme that pretty much any Dolly fan will instantly understand.
Those who've ever listened to the lyrics of the 1973 song "Jolene" will know the song tells the story of a woman whose partner has feelings for another woman, namely Jolene.
Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene I'm begging of you please don't take my man Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene Please don't take him just because you can
Well, now the lyrics of this timeless song have been immortalised in meme form by none other than Dolly herself.
