Chorus:

Jolene, Jolene

Jolene, Jolene 

I'm beggin' 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 

There's nothing I can do to keep from cryin' 

When he calls your name, Jolene



And I could easily understand 

How you could easily take my man 

But you don't know what he means to me, Jolene



Chorus



Well you can 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

Even though you can





Jolene 

Jolene
