Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, I’m begging of you please don’t take my man Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene Please don’t take him just because you can Your beauty is beyond compare With flaming locks of hair With ivory skin and eyes of emerald green Your smile is like a breath of spring Your voice is soft like rain And I cannot compete with you, Jolene
He talks about you in his sleep There’s nothing I can do keep From crying when he calls your name, Jolene
And I can easily understand you could easily take my man you don’t know what he means to me, Jolene
Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene I’m begging of you please don’t take my man Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene Please take him just because you can
You could have your choice of men But I never love again He’s the only one for me, Jolene
I had to have this with you My happiness depends on you And whatever you decide to do, Jolene
Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, I’m begging of you please don’t take my man Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene Please don’t take him even though you can
