Paula Cole - Jolene lyrics

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
