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 I cannot compete with you, Jolene he talks about you in his sleep And there is nothing I can do to keep From crying when he calls your name, 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
Now I can easily understand How you can easily take my man But you don't know what he means to me, Jolene
Well you could have your choice of men But I could never love again He's the only one for me, Jolene
And 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 even though you can
