Dolly Parton’s ‘Jolene’ Parodied By Arkansas Nurses As ‘COVID-19’
Two nurses in Fort Smith, Arkansas have changed the words to Dolly Parton’s “Jolene” to fits the scary times we are living in with the COVID-19 virus.
The video – filmed in a hospital room – has the two nurses singing some great lines from the song like:
“COVID, COVID, COVID-19, I’m begging of you please don’t touch my hands…”
“COVID, COVID, COVID-19, keep six feet away if you can…”
“This illness is beyond compare, there is no TP anywhere…
“Everybody seems no nervous, Wal-Mart is a great big circus, we cannot compete with you 19.”
“I had to have this talk with you, there’s just two things you’ve got to do wash your hands and say your prayers I plead.”
