Jill Johnson - Jolene lyrics

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
Oh, 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
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
Oh, 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

Oh, Please don't take him
Just because you can
I'm begging of you, please, don't take my man
