Jolene

Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jole-ene, I’m begging of you please don’t take my man
Jolene, Jolene, Jolene Jole-ene, Please don’t take him just because you can

   Your beauty is beyond compare with flaming locks of auburn hair
   With ivory skin and eyes of emerald green

   Your smile is like a breathe of spring your voice is soft like summer rain
   And I cannot compete with you Jolene

   He talks about you in his sleep and there’s nothing I can do to keep
   From crying when he calls your name Jolene

Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jole-ene, I’m begging of you please don’t take my man
Jolene, Jolene, Jolene Jole-ene, Please don’t take him just because you can

   Now I can easily understand how you could easily take my man
   But you don’t know what he means to me Jolene

   You can have your choice of men but I could never love again
   He’s the only one for me Jolene

   I had to have this talk with you. My happiness depends on you
   And whatever you decide to do Jolene

Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jole-ene, I’m begging of you please don’t take my man
Jolene, Jolene, Jolene Jole-ene, Please don’t take him even though you can

Jolene, Joleee—eeene
