Jolene Lyrics - Me First And The Gimme Gimmes

[Originally by Dolly Parton] 

Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene 

I'm begging of you please don't take my man 

Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene 

Please don't take him just because you can 

Your beauty is beyond compare 

With flaming locks of auburn hair 

With ivory skin and eyes of emerald green 

Your smile is like a breath of spring 

Your voice is soft like summer rain 

And I cannot compete with you, Jolene 

Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene 

I'm begging of you please don't take my man 

Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene 

Please don't take him just because you can 

Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene 

I'm begging of you please don't take my man 

Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene 

Please don't take him even though you can
