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
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
He talks about you in his sleep and there's nothing I can do to keep
From crying when he calls your name Jolene
Now I can easily understand how could you easily take my man
But 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 even though you can
[ mandolin - fiddle ]
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...
Jolene Jolene Jolene Jolene...
Please don't take him even though you can
Please don't take him just because you can
