Always Wanting You - Merle Haggard & The Strangers - MP3 instrumental karaoke

Many have fallen under Dolly Parton's spell. The talented songstress has written chart-topping hits, hosted her own TV show, starred in several blockbuster films, written books, created the Dollywood theme park, and helped develop a Covid vaccine. In the 70s, Merle Haggard fell hard for Parton while recording one of her songs, “Kentucky Gambler.” The two later toured together and his feelings became stronger. He finally admitted his love but she explained she was in love with her husband, Carl Dean, and would never cheat. Haggard tried to get Parton out of his mind but she was even in his dreams. He finally put those tortured feelings into words and called Dolly at 3 AM to sing her "Always Wanting You." He was hoping the song might sway her but she still said no. Luckily, that heartfelt inspiration helped "Always Wanting You" reach #1.
The backing track for "Always Wanting You" is available with background vocals or as an instrumental on Karaoke Version.
