 This pattern was adopted for the film version of the musical, except that Dolly Parton (who played Miss Mona) is featured as soloist on the refrains, with the girls accompanying her.A further alteration can be found on the soundtrack album for the film in which Parton alone sings the verses.Parton's version of the song was released as a single in October 1982, reaching number 8 on the U.S. country singles chart in January 1983.
