Quote by Dolly Parton
I do remember how it was to be poor. I do remember that in my earl

I do remember how it was to be poor. I do remember that in my early years, we had to grow and raise all of our food, even our animals. And I remember in my early life, we didnt even have electricity. So it was very, very hard times then. – Dolly Parton
