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

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

and your voice is soft like a summer rain

and I cannot compete with you jolene

and he talks about you in his sleep

and there is nothing I can do to keep

from crying when he calls your name, 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 even though you can

well I could easily understand

how you could easily take my man

but you don't know what he means to me jolene

well you could have your choice of men

but I could never love again

he's the only one for me jolene

and I had to have this talk with you

my happiness depends on you

and whatever you decide to do 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 even though you canThe White Stripes Lyrics Index
