Jolene

jolene, 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



well your beauty is beyond compare

with flaming locks of auburn hair

with ivory skin and eyes of emerald green



your smile is like a breath of spring

your voice is soft like summer rain

and i cannot compete with you, jolene



well he talks about you in his sleep

and there's nothing i can do to keep from crying

when he calls your name, jolene



and i can easily understand

how you can easily take my man

but you don't know what he means to me, jolene



well now you could have your choice of men

but i could never love again

he's the only one for me, jolene



well i had to have this talk with you

my happiness depends on you

and whatever you decide to do, jolene



jolene, 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



jolene, 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



please don't take him just because you can

you can, you can
