Chas I cook your a breakfast and send you to work
I mend your clothes Chas I iron your shirts
There’s so much thought in each thing that I do
And all of the time Chas I’m loving you
And I greet you each evening Chas when you come home
I miss you so badly while you are gone
And if I make you happy then I’m happy too and all of the time Chas I’m loving you
Chas I rock your babies I teach them to talk
I care for your wife Chas because she can’t walk
I do all the things she’s unabled to do and all of the time Chas I’m loving you
I want you so much but your wife need you Chas
You’ll never be mine and I’ll never ask
I know that you love her and I love her too but all of the time Chas I’m loving you
I look at you Chas you look at me but what I am thinking must never be
I love you so much and it’s hard to resist
I want you but I I couldn’t take you from sis
But all of the time Chas I’m loving you

The word "lyric" itself derives from the Latin word lyricus, with the actual English word lyrics applied to the definition "words set to music" listed in Stainer and Barrett's 1876 Dictionary of Musical Terms. Continuing the chain, the Latin word lyricus derives from the Greek word λυρικός or lyrikós. This somewhat means "poetry accompanied by the lyre" or "words set to music." You can easily see that by looking at the background of the word lyric, that the "lyrics to Chas" means the words set to the music of Chas, or poetry accompanied by the lyre played by Dolly Parton. The singular form "lyric" is still used to mean the complete words to a song. However, the singular form lyric is also commonly used to refer to a specific line (or phrase) within a song's lyrics.
