|
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. |
|
And I can easily understand, |
|
How you could 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 just because you can. |
|
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 |
|
I'm begging of you |
|
Please don't take my man. |
|
Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene |
|
Please don't take him just because you can |
