The song is about a country girl named Doralee who feels misunderstood and judged by her appearance. She wants people to see past her looks and realize there is more to her than meets the eye.

The song is about Doralee, a country girl who feels misunderstood and judged by others based on her appearance. She describes herself as a 'backwoods barbie' who grew up poor but dreams of more. However, she wants people to see her for who she is, not how she looks.

The narrator describes herself as a 'backwoods barbie' - a country girl who grew up poor but tries to look pretty. She acknowledges that she may look artificial or shallow based on her appearance but says that underneath, she is real.
