Singer Dolly Parton doesn’t plan on stopping her career of more than 50 years.

In an interview with “Greatest Hits Radio,” Parton, 77, said she’s “not one to sit around doing nothing” and admitted she feels “responsible” to keep going despite her age.

“I would never retire. I’ll just hopefully drop dead in the middle of a song onstage someday,” she joked, adding she hopes it will be to a song she’s written.

She continued, “Anyhow, that’s how I hope to go. Of course, we don’t have much of a choice in that.”

Parton revealed she plans to keep working as long as she can while her “health is good” and her “husband is good.”

“I mean, the only way that I would ever slow down or stop would be for that reason. But in the meantime, I’m gonna make hay while the sun shines,” she said.

Parton also revealed what her plans were for the future.

She shared:

“I have new dreams every day. I want to have my own network TV show where I can actually do a lot of new things and produce and I want to have my own story called ‘The Life of Many Colors,’ where I have a whole series of my life, stuff that people haven’t seen or known or heard about and my people where I come from, how I’ve got to be and how and who I am, but to really have the behind the scenes and the adventures of my life.” 

Additionally, Parton said she wanted to have her own line of makeup, wigs, and clothes.

“So those things all come under that ‘branding’ which we’re doing so much of now,” she explained. 

Parton continued, “So, once you get to a certain place in your career, you get a lot of offers and some of them are just a little hard to turn down.”
