Dolly Parton - Mule Skinner Blues (Blue Yodel No. 8) (Audio) 

Her voice is otherworldly, but that backing band is on straight fire as well.

My grandfather’s chihuahua is scared of this song for whatever reason.

Why isn’t this song more popular?? This is an iconic performance!!

The energy in her vocals!

Dolly's better than a national living treasurer, that voice is gift to the world from God.

how can she make yodeling sound so beautiful 😭

Now, this is the auditory equivalent of a good strong cup of coffee. Love it!

YodelayHEEEEEEE! That high note is about as technically perfect as a voice can possibly get!

She has the best voice out of all the women country singers anywhere in the world she's an Alto soprano she could sing opera if she wanted to and she can definitely yodel typical Mountain girl! She's also one of my favorite country music artist

Holy cow Mama! ... how have I NEVER heard this song before!!? 🧡🧡💥

Theres nobody more positive than Dolly Partons voice doing these upbeat country songs while trying to face heavy problems! She just gives you an energy boost!

Just wanted say thank you for being a beautiful person by being yourself.

Best country female singer. What a voice, what a woman!!!

this song went to #3 on the country charts in 1970!!!

SHE'S PERFECT BEAUTIFUL TALENTED AND KIND

What a beautiful woman and what a huge talent. I have had a enormous crush on her from the first time Porter Wagner introduced her on his show .

So many powerful voices out there in the music world, this just can't be topped!

Brilliant singing from Dolly, fabulous.

My uncle used to make me listen this song, with other country songs, when I was like 5 yo in the ‘80s. Loved it but I lost any memory about it. Then Yellowstone season 5 happened. My brain opened that drawer and blocked me with a shocked smile on my face. So happy to remember again.

One of my favorites of her. She did a beautiful cover of this song. She truly is a national treasure. An amazing human being.

Looked this up because it was the ending credit music for one of early episodes of Ken Burns' _Country Music_ which they're showing on our local PBS pledge drive.

❤️❤️❤️Dolly❤️❤️❤️ This was incredible!!! She deserves a number one hit out of this!!!

God bless Dolly! She's a gift from God Himself. Voice of gold. Heart as big as the moon. She was 17 when I was born, and my dad (probably lots of dads) was madly in love with her. It pissed my mother off something fierce. lol 😂 She's still going strong because she's a genuine talent!! 💜

Rockabilly at it's best! Loved this song since I heard it in a bar in the 70's in California!

I've loved her version of this song for 55 years. This sounds like the original recording that was electronically enhanced for clarity instead of a remake.

Break all the boundaries, Doll!

Bold, spirited, energetic country song!!!

Dolly sweetheart I've always loved listening to you I've been listening to you for work 35 years now I'm an old fart and I really enjoy your music thank you for sharing your god-given talent with the world may he continue to bless you and keep you safe love Pops

This was my uncle Jim's favorite song by his favorite singer. Ironically it was originally done by Jimmie Rogers, whom he was named after. Rip Uncle Jim , Father's Day, 1983. 😥

What a wonderful song , she holds them notes, no one sang like her, nor one bore a bigger heart

Proof that some of the best stuff ever didn't get half a chance.

ONE OF THE GREATEST VOICES AND GREATEST SONGWRITERS

It still gives me goosebumps.

Her hair looks absolutely fabulous here!

It earn Parton grammy nominations best country vocals performance

A excellent singer. I have listened to miss Dolly since the 1970s. Never disappoints. The queen of pigeon forge.

😱 her vocals are truly amazing!!! 💎💖💖

Absolutely love this song..I'm so glad I've got a home stereo that will blast..neighbors can hear it. This song gives me such good vibes and makes me grin. I love you dolly. You're a 1 of a kind gem. Beautiful through and through, this I know.💜

This song gives me goosebumps

One of my favorite Dolly songs! She did this on Porter Wagoner's show in the early 70's or late 60's.

SUCH A BIG POWERFUL VOICE FOR A SMALL WOMAN

Definitely a gift from God! Just fantastic!

She was blessed, in turn so were we!

The more I see or hear her, or know what she's done for others beyond entertaining them, the greater fan I become.

Played this in Columbia, TN for Mule day.

Wow!! I listen to punk and heavy metal but this song makes you want to get up and move

She does Jimmy Rogers proud!

Amo a Dolly, sus canciones me encantan. También me parece un ser humano con un gran corazón y ojala todas las personas fuéramos como ella.

Was watching documentary on country music...ken burns... this song closed out 1st episode.... brought me here.... brilliant 👏

Effortless, and sassy and fun- she’s wonderful

Happy 75th Birthday, Dollious Maximus!

If you don't like your job, throw your bucket down! That's brilliant!

I love dolly's singing

Never be another Dolly! Beautiful spirit.

She has the best cover of this song...in my humble opinion.

I didn’t think I liked Dolly until I watched Ken Burns’ Country Music (I know I’m a couple years late on that), but I love this version of this song

Dolly is favrite

Dolly is fire but that band is untouchable, especially that 🥁

Such a commanding presence...straight from a pure ❤️

I love this song.

Dolly is a National Treasure. Nobody is a close second. What a voice !

This Dolly record made a fan out of me in the early 1970's. I'd been hearing her on country radio, but it took a few years for me to get used to her unusual voice. But this amazing performance converted me and I'm still her fan for life. What a voice she has!

❤️We ❤️You❤️Dolly❤️ Thank you for all the years of beautiful entertainment!❤️ ❤️You are ❤️LEGEND❤️
