beyonce rewrites dolly partons iconic jolene lyrics to deliver cover on cowboy carter

Los Angeles: Grammy-winner Beyonce has revamped lyrics of Dolly Partons iconic 1973 song Jolene, as she covered the track for her album Cowboy Carter.

Beyonces country-themed album has 27 tracks that not only comprises the Jolene cover with new lyrics, but also an interlude from Parton herself.

A big alteration was made to the chorus, with the original having Parton pleading with another woman. Beyonce changed the lyrics where she gives a strict warning to the woman to not come for my man, reports dailymail.co.uk.

The Naughty Girl hitmaker also made changes to lyrics in the verses, where Parton had originally sung about the womans beauty.

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

Earlier this month, Parton had hinted that Beyonce may have covered Jolene.
