Dolly Parton Calls Out Politicians in New Song: ‘None of Them Are Working From the Heart’

Singer 🎤Dolly Parton has made some bold statements about politicians in her new song.

On Monday, Parton sat down with the “Today” show and talked about her new rock single “World on Fire” from her upcoming rock album “Rockstar,” which comes out on Nov. 17. In the song, the “Jolene” singer didn’t hold back her criticism of politicians.

The lyrics read, “Don’t get me started on 🏛️Politics / Now how are we to live in a world like this/ Greedy politicians present and past / They wouldn’t know the truth if it bit ‘em in the a–.”

When asked who she was speaking about specifically, Parton responded, “All of (the politicians). Any of ‘em. I don’t think any of ‘em are trying hard enough.”

“I’m sure we’re all trying, but I just really think often that they worry more about their party than they do about the people,” she added.

Parton explained politicians shouldn’t focus on competition and image but on something much deeper.

“If we just do what we felt was the right thing, rather than who’s going to lose, or who’s going to win this, or who’s going to look better if they do this. None of them are working from the heart,” she shared.
