Parton’s final album, “Rockstar,” was a mix of original material and classic rock covers. She said she was inspired by her Rock & Roll Hall of Fame nomination to craft a tribute to the genre.

“Even though I am extremely flattered and grateful to be nominated for the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, I don’t feel that I have earned that right,” Parton said when she tried to decline the nomination.

“I do hope that the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame will understand and be willing to consider me again — if I’m ever worthy,” she continued. “This has, however, inspired me to put out a hopefully great rock ‘n’ roll album at some point in the future, which I have always wanted to do!”

Despite her statement, Parton was inducted later that year and debuted a new song, “Rockin’ It,” at the induction ceremony. The live recording was later included on the deluxe version of “Rockstar.”

“I’ve been rockin’, rockin’, rockin’ since the day I was born,” Parton sings in the chorus. “I’ll be rockin’ ’til the day I’m gone.”
