Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene
I'm beggin' of you please don't take my man
Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene
Please don't take him even though you can
Your beauty is beyond compare
With flamin' locks of auburn hair
With ivory skin and eyes of emerald green
Your smile is like a breath of spring
And your voice is soft like summer rain
And I cannot compete with you, Jolene
He talks about you in his sleep
And there's nothin' I can do to keep
From cryin' when he calls your name, Jolene
Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene
I'm beggin' of you please don't take my man
Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene
Please don't take him even though you can
Well, I can easily understand
How you could easily take my man,
But you don't know what he means to me, Jolene
Well, you could have your choice of man
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 beggin' of you please don't take my man
Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene
Please don't take him even though you can
I'm beggin' of you please don't take my man
Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene
Please don't take him even though you can

With flamin' locks of auburn hair
With ivory skin and eyes of emerald green

And your voice is soft like summer rain
And I cannot compete with you, Jolene

And there's nothin' I can do to keep
