Beyoncé is ready to kick off her real-life hoedown as Cowboy Carter inches closer to release.
The Grammy Award winner, 42, graced her 319 million Instagram followers with the tracklist for her upcoming debut country album, which drops on March 29.
‘Cowboy Carter and the Rodeo Chitlin’ Circuit,’ reads the vintage country style graphic she shared Wednesday on Instagram. ‘Brought to you by Kntry Radio Texas.’
Among the songs is the notable inclusion of a cover of Dolly Parton’s 1973 single ‘Jolene’, which the country icon previously teased.
Parton, 78, told Knox News earlier this month that she ‘heard’ Bey laid down a cover of the song, which she ‘hopes’ to be true.

‘Well, I think she has!’ said Parton. ‘I think she’s recorded “Jolene” and I think it’s probably gonna be on her country album, which I’m very excited about that.
‘I love her! She’s a beautiful girl and a great singer,’ she raved.
Parton said she and Beyoncé have ‘sent messages back and forth through the years,’ leading up to the cover.
‘And she and her mother were like fans, and I was always touched that they were fans, and I always thought she was great,’ added Parton.
Beyoncé previously teased that she ‘collaborated with some brilliant artists who I deeply respect,’ prompting fans to speculate about a track with Taylor Swift.
Although there’s no sign of Swift, another country legend appears on the tracklist with the song ‘Smoke Hour’ featuring Willie Nelson.
In addition to the previously released singles ‘Texas Hold ‘Em’ and ’16 Carriages’, the rest of the list includes such songs as ‘Ameriican Requiem’, ‘Blackbiird’, ‘Protector’ and ‘My Rose’.
