Sabrina Carpenter is having a country moment.

During the "Espresso" hitmaker's Short n' Sweet Tour stop at Nashville's Bridgestone Arena on Oct. 16, she performed a cover of Dolly Parton's "9 to 5" as a surprise for fans — who seemed to love her rendition.

Parton's 1980 hit was chosen as Carpenter's nightly surprise cover song in a game of spin the bottle, according to fan footage on social media. The crowd cheered upon seeing the track title on screen, and the Tall Girl star asked them to sing along with her.

The lyrics of "9 to 5" were displayed on screens in the venue as dancers surrounded Carpenter, whose rendition of the Grammy-winning song was quite faithful to the original.

Throughout the Short n' Sweet Tour, other surprise cover songs performed by Carpenter include ABBA's "Mamma Mia," Shania Twain's "That Don't Impress Me Much," Sixpence None the Richer's "Kiss Me" and Madonna's "Material Girl."

Following her live take on Twain's 1997 hit in Toronto last month, the country star told E! News she felt the moment was "just a huge compliment."

"I mean, [Carpenter is] such a talented person! She’s smart, so it’s a compliment," added Twain.

The Short n' Sweet Tour continues its North American leg through November 18, before the European leg runs for 14 shows in March 2025.

Earlier this week, Carpenter took to Instagram after her recent shows in Philadelphia, Montreal and Chicago and told fans "the crowds are crowding" at her concerts. "I love you guys so much," she wrote.

In a recent interview with TIME, Carpenter spoke about how one song in particular has been resonating with crowds on tour — the chart-topping "Please Please Please."

"This just really hits for the girls that have every right to go back to someone who isn't good for them, and know that those mistakes are absolutely human to make, and repeatedly," she told the outlet.

"The amount of times that we've all been with people we shouldn't be," added Carpenter. "We either learn it the hard way, or we are a miracle and we end up marrying that person."
