Speaking from Experience
I speak from experience when I say that Ms. Parton states the obvious
here:
They let your dream
Just to watch 'em shatter
You're just a step
On the boss man's ladder
But you got a dream he'll never take away
I have been a boss man myself, and I can honestly say, "Who would want that shattered dream that I let you have? Now get a broom and a dustpan and clean it up!"
Did I mention how many years running I got the Boss Man of the Year award? No?
