Jolene lyrics

Jolene, Jolene,

Jolene, Jolene

I'm begging of you

Please don't take my man

Your beauty is

beyond compare

With flaming locks

of auburn hair

Ivory skin and eyes

of emerald green

Your smile is like

a breath of spring

Your voice is soft

like summer rain

I cannot compete

with you, Jolene

He talks about you

in his sleep

There's nothing I

can do to keep

from crying when he

calls your name,

Jolene

And I can easily

understand

How 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 don't take him just

because you can

Well, you could 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, Jolene

Oh, I'm begging of you, please don't take my man

Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene

Please don't take him just because you can

Oh, please don't take him even though you can

Oh, please don't take him even though you can

Oh, Jolene
