It's hard for me to lie to you
She comes home to me
And we lay awake
Til morning breaks
Discussing poetry
Jolene, we almost never met
Then where would we both be?
We'd be drowning in a sea of wealth
Six figures of misery
Take it easy, I'm new at this Jolene
Make it easier for me to turn and leave
When I walk away, I find I've been replaced
Now he's in your thoughts en route to outer s***e
And it's hard to go to bed with you
Still running through my mind
But you make it so much easier
To leave it all behind
And then you fly me to the moon
While singing country songs
I would lie in bed til morning breaks
If it weren't for my alarm
Take it easy, I'm new at this Jolene
Make it easier for me to turn and leave
When I walk away, I find I've been replaced
Now he's in your thoughts en route to outer s***e again
Make it easy my darling, don't be shy
Light a cigarette and then you close your eyes
When I walk away, I find I've been replaced
Now he's in your bed en route to outer s***e
She comes home to me
And we lay awake
Til morning breaks
Discussing poetry
Jolene, we almost never met
Then where would we both be?
We'd be drowning in a sea of wealth
Six figures of misery
Take it easy, I'm new at this Jolene
Make it easier for me to turn and leave
When I walk away, I find I've been replaced
Now he's in your thoughts en route to outer s***e
And it's hard to go to bed with you
Still running through my mind
But you make it so much easier
To leave it all behind
And then you fly me to the moon
While singing country songs
I would lie in bed til morning breaks
If it weren't for my alarm
Take it easy, I'm new at this Jolene
Make it easier for me to turn and leave
When I walk away, I find I've been replaced
Now he's in your thoughts en route to outer s***e again
Make it easy my darling, don't be shy
Light a cigarette and then you close your eyes
When I walk away, I find I've been replaced
Now he's in your bed en route to outer s***e
