Lyrics to: Jolene
By Artist: 10000 Maniacs
Jolene, jolene, jolene, jolene
Im begging of you please dont take my man
Jolene, jolene, jolene, jolene
Please dont take him just because you can
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
Now he talks about you in his sleep
And theres nothing I can do to keep
From crying when he calls your name jolene
Jolene, jolene, jolene, jolene
Im begging of you please dont take my man
Jolene, jolene, jolene, jolene
Please dont take him just because you can
Now I can easily understand
How you could easily take my man
But you dont know what he means to me jolene
Oh you could have your choice of men
But I could never love again
Hes the only one for me jolene
Well I have to have this talk with you
My happiness depends on you
And whatever you decide to do jolene
Jolene, jolene, jolene, jolene
Im begging of you please dont take my man
Jolene, jolene, jolene, jolene
Please dont take him just because you can
