Dolly Parton is a supreme lyricist imho
If you listen to songs like Dumb Blonde, Coat of Many Colours and Bargain Store, you'll know what a good story teller she is
My all time favourite though is Smoky Mountain Memories, a little known song over here
I'd actually not heard this song until I saw her live and it actually moved me to tears
She described her childhood struggles and how her Dad wanted so much to improve their lot in life
He took a job in the car industry on the other side of the States, but despite the money being better, it destroyed him because he missed his wife & kids so much
Take a listen
