Dolly Parton and Sia record "Here I Am" as a duet

Dolly Parton and Sia have recorded a new version of "Here I Am."

The two artists came together to work on the soundtrack for a new movie called "Dumplin" about a plus-sized teen who enters a beauty pageant to win over a boy she likes. The movie will be released on NetFlix later this year and will include six new compositions and six re-recordings of older songs by Dolly Parton.

Parton's original rendition of "Here I Am" appeared on her 1971 album "Coat of Many Colors."
