Verse 1

~~~~~~

Your beauty is beyond compare,

With flaming locks of golden hair,

With iv'ry skin and eyes of emerald green.

Verse 2

~~~~~~

Your smile is like a breath of spring,

Your voice is soft like summer rain,

And I cannot compete with you,

Jolene.

Verse 3

~~~~~~

He talks about you in his sleep,

There's nothing I can do to keep,

>From crying when he calls your name,

Jolene.

Verse 4

~~~~~~

And I can easily understand,

How you could easily take my man,

But you don't know what he means to me,

Jolene.

Verse 5

~~~~~~

Well you can have your choice of men,

But I can never love again,

He's the only one for me,

Jolene.

Verse 6

~~~~~~

I have to have this talk with you,

My happiness depends on you,

Whatever you decide to do,

Jolene.
