Jolene Lyrics

Paula Cole

Chorus:
JolenejolenejolenejoleneI'm beggin' of youplease don't take my man

Your beauty is beyond comparewith flamin' locks of auburn hair
With ivory skin and eyes of emerald green
Your smile is like a breath of springyour voice is soft like summer rain
And I can not compete with youjolene
He talks about you in his sleepand there's nothing I can do to keep
From cryin' when he calls your namejolene
And I can easily understand how you can easy take my man


But you don't know what it means to mejolene

Chorus

Nowyou could have your choice of menbut I could never love again
He's the only one for mejolene
I had to have this talk with youmy happiness depends on you
Whatever you decide to dojolene
JolenejolenejolenejoleneI'm beggin' of youplease don't take my man
Jolenejolenejolenejoleneplease don't take himeven though you can
