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
verse 1
Her beauty is beyond compare
With flaming locks of auburn hair
With ivory skin and eyes of emerald green
The closer that you get to her
The more those edges seem to blur
To something you can only call Jolene
Her voice is soft like siren song
But when she smiles, there?s something wrong
God can?t protect us from the dread Jolene
Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene,
I beg you, children, don?t disturb her sleep
Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene,
You?re safe while she slumbers in the deep
verse 2
We cower here beneath the gaze
That sets the earth and sky ablaze
Have mercy at the end of days, Jolene
Our sleep disturbed by growling breath
Eyes closed against the threat of death
That lies behind the maw of that Jolene
Her teeth are wide, her mouth agape
Her claws rend flesh, there?s no escape
From judgement of the Eldritch One, Jolene
Blackening the summer skies
With burning wings and countless eyes
We tremble at the thought of you Jolene
Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene,
I beg you, children, don?t disturb her sleep
Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene,
You?re safe while she slumbers in the deep
verse 3
Some foolish souls tried to defend
But their broken minds 'd no time to mend
They fell at the mere sight of you, Jolene
Before her wrath no foe could stand
Their corpses piled upon the sand
The blood of gods is on her hands: Jolene
And as the massacre began
I saw how easily you took my man
But you don?t know what he meant to me, Jolene
He screamed about you in his sleep
And when he woke did naught but weep
In terror of the one he called Jolene
And in the end, his poor heart caved
I had to dig another grave
Inside the growing family plot, Jolene
Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene,
I beg you, children, don?t disturb her sleep
Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene,
You?re safe while she slumbers in the deep
verse 4
You could?ve had your choice in men
But I will never love again
And his demise is why I?m here Jolene
Bliss withers from your awful truth
Gone is the ignorance of youth
The unrelenting mark of you, Jolene
I?ve seen beyond your auburn hair
My eyes have met your vacant stare
And I?ve been told I?m hard to scare, Jolene
Outro
Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene,
I?ve read the books, I?ve found your weakest spot
Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene,
Before you wake, you?ll be dead and left to rot
Your head will mark my family plot, Jolene
