She has the distinction of having performed on a top-five country hit in each of the last five decades and is tied with Reba McEntire as the only country artists with No. 1 singles in four consecutive decades.

  • what an awesome song and I am not a country fan...Dolly has a lovely voice...she has power but also control

  • @jsbud333 fine tooth refers to the size of the TEETH of a comb, also known as tines like on a fork. A fine tooth comb is a small comb with lots of teeth. Nothing stupid about it except for the few who don't get it.
