"Theres nothing i can do to keep

from crying when he calls your name... Jolene. "

You know one of those songs that you just genuinely like. Its not famous, its very unique and simple. well Jolene by mindy smith [originally by dolly parton] is the greatest to me.

i think its such an honest song. I mean all of the songs out there now are about how i am so much better than you, and not that true raw feeling of looking at someone else and thinking 'wow you are so much better than me'



Jolene [lyrics by dolly parton]

[refrain]Jolene, jolene, jolene, jolene
Im begging of you please dont take my man
Jolene, jolene, jolene, jolene
Please dont 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

He talks about you in his sleep
Theres nothing I can do to keep
From crying when he calls your name, jolene

And I can easily understand
How you could easily take my man
But you dont know what he means to me,
[refrain]

you could have your choice of men
But I could never love again
Hes the only one for me, jolene
I had to have this talk with you
My happiness depends on you
And whatever you decide to do,

joleneJolene, jolene, jolene, jolene
Im begging of you please dont take my man
Jolene, jolene, jolene, jolene
Please dont take him even though you can
