The shows usually featured opening performances by Wagoner with performances by Norma Jean, or later Parton, and comedic interludes by Speck Rhodes. During Parton's tenure, she and Wagoner usually sang a duet. Each episode also featured a guest who would usually perform one or two songs. A spiritual or gospel performance was almost always featured toward the end of the show; generally performed by either Wagoner or Parton, or the show's guest star, or occasionally the entire cast. After Dolly left the show, Porter began taping the show at Opryland USA in various locations around the park.

The shows had a friendly, informal feel, with Wagoner trading jokes with band members (frequently during songs) and exchanging banter with Parton and Howser. In 1974, Dolly Parton's song "I Will Always Love You", written about her professional break from Wagoner, went to number one on the country music charts.

Dolly Parton and Porter Wagoner - Lost Forever In Your Kiss Lyrics

This is not at all like me

I never thought that I could be

So over-come by any one like this

But you caught me by surprise

Caught me before I realized, now

I am lost forever in your kiss

So take me if you want me

Love me if you will

For you have all control of me

I am yours until

You say that you don't want me

Oh, I hope that never will be

For I am lost forever in your kiss

You're on my mind constantly

On, this is all so new to me

And when you reach for me I can't resist

For I've become a part of you

And I'll do anything you want me to, for
