Page "Dolly Parton" Paragraph 5

Parton's initial success came as a songwriter, writing two top ten hits with her uncle Bill Owens: Bill Phillips's " Put it off Until Tomorrow " and Skeeter Davis ' 1967 hit " Fuel to the Flame ".

She also wrote a minor chart hit for Hank Williams Jr during this period.

She had signed with Monument Records in late 1965, where she was initially pitched as a bubblegum pop singer, earning only one national-chart single, " Happy, Happy Birthday Baby ", which did not crack the Billboard Hot 100.
