By changing it, can Bey claim songwriting credits on it?

[evilyn_1007]

The credits on her website just say Written by Dolly Parton. Then it has Additional Lyrics by a bunch of people.

I remember seeing somewhere that Dolly stipulates no co-writers be added before she licenses her songs.

First time in Herstory Beyonce has ever wroten a verse, a word, a single letter of a word without claiming credit

I don't know how Dolly managed to stay so kind and gracious all these years. I can't imagine the level of misogyny and harassment she had to endure over the years, and still managed to not even be a little jaded by it.

I <3 her. I'm not into her music (sorry), but she seems remarkably down to earth and cool. I like how she learns of an issue and then tries to resolve it.

She truly is an icon, she told Elvis no. She’s a sassy, smart, incredibly talented boss lady who gives back SO MUCH to people

The free book program for kids, dollyworld being the first theme park to have a sensory room/place for kids, how she used Whitney’s cover royalties to give back to a poor neighborhood in Nashville…..she’s amazing

Imagine someone doing this with one of bey’s songs she’d sue them into oblivion

[britneyjeanspea]

Literally thought of for the first time in forever, but wasn’t one of Betonces songs straight up stolen from an up and coming artist

would rather have my partner run out on me than expect me to stay with them after cheating so.

I just didn't care for country Beyonce.
