This is the first letter that I wrote back home to
mom and daddy A few days after I'd moved to
Nashville June 2nd 1964 Nashville Tennesee Dear
mom and daddy I hope this letter finds everybody
well and happy As for me I'm fine I guess I'm just
a little lonesome and a whole lot homesick I got
to Nashville OK and I thought I'd better write and
let you know Cause I knew you'd be worried about
me And I don't let you know to worried about me
Cause I'm gonna be alright Once I get settled and
used to bein' away from home I didn't realize how
much I loved you and all them noisy kids until I
left And I didn't reaize how hard it was to eave
home eiter Till I started to leave and everybody
started cryin' includin' me I cried almost all the
way to Nashville And I wanted to turn around a few
times and come back But you know how bad I've
always wanted to go to Nashville And be a singer
and songwriter And I believe that if I try long

Don't worry about tryin' to send me any money or
anything Cause I've got a job singin' on the early
morning television show Here called the Eddie Hill
Show And a couple of folks already told me that
they might record a couple of my songs So I'll be
makin' enough money to get by And I don't want you
to worryin' about me bein' hungry or anything And
Nashville's not exactly what I thought it was
gonna be But I believe I'm gonna like it here once
I get used to it And I don't want you to worryin'
about me gettin' in trouble either Cause I'll be
good just like I promised you I would when I left
Well can't think of anything else to say I guess
I'd better close for now and you write me real
soon And tell everybody I said hello and I'm gonna
be real anxious to hear from you Cause I sure miss
you and I love you an awful lot With love as
always Dolly
