10000 Maniacs - Jolene Lyrics
Jolene, jolene, jolene, joleneIm begging of you please dont take my manJolene, jolene, jolene, jolenePlease dont take him just because you canYour beauty is beyond compareWith flaming locks of auburn hairIvory skin and eyes of emerald greenYour smile is like a breath of springYour voice is soft like summer rainI cannot compete with you joleneNow he talks about you in his sleepAnd theres nothing I can do to keepFrom crying when he calls your name joleneJolene, jolene, jolene, joleneIm begging of you please dont take my manJolene, jolene, jolene, jolenePlease dont take him just because you canNow I can easily understandHow you could easily take my manBut you dont know what he means to me joleneOh you could have your choice of menBut I could never love againHes the only one for me joleneWell I have to have this talk with youMy happiness depends on youAnd whatever you decide to do joleneJolene, jolene, jolene, joleneIm begging of you please dont take my manJolene, jolene, jolene, jolenePlease dont take him just because you can
