[Chorus]
Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene
Ooh, I'm begging her to please don't take my man, yeah
Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene
Please don't take him just because you can

[Verse 1]
Your beauty is beyond compare
Flaming locks of auburn hair
And ivory skin and eyes of emerald green
Your smile is like a breath of spring
Skin is soft like summer rain
And I cannot compete with you, Jolene

[Verse 2]
Yeah, and I can easily understand
You could easily take my man
But you don't know what he means to me, Jolene
He talks about you in his sleep
Nothin' I can do to keep
From cryin' when he calls your name, Jolene, c'mon

[Chorus]
Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene
Ooh, I'm begging her to please don't take my man, yeah
Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene
Please don't take him just because you can, yeah

[Verse 3]
I had to have this talk with you
My happiness depends on you
Whatever you decide to do, Jolene
And you can have your choice of men
I could never love again
'Cause He's the only one for me, Jolene, c'mon

[Chorus]
Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene
Ooh, I'm begging her to please don't take my man, yeah
Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene
Please don't take him just because you can, yeah

[Outro]
Jolene, Jolene
Jolene
