Josh Gilley – Jolene lyrics
Jolene by Josh Gilley
Came in here tonight, I didn’t know just what to say.
It seems I’ve lost my love in the strangest way.
The look on your face told me everything I need to know.
Guess I should’ve believed you when you said how far you’d go
Chorus:
Jolene, oh no Jolene
Why you wanna throw my love away?
Jolene, oh no Jolene
Why you wanna do me, do me this way?
She said there aint no need to lie, cause you told her everything.
Then she took off and threw down her wedding ring.
I sat there with tears in my eyes, begging her not to go.
Knowing deep in the back of my mind; you reap just what you sow.
Chorus:
Jolene, oh no Jolene
Why you wanna throw my love away?
Jolene, oh no Jolene
Why you wanna do me, do me this way?
They say to be weary of a woman scorned.....
And now I can tell that they weren't wrong.
I can hear your words like your speaking to me still.
“If I can’t have you, then no one can.”
Chorus:
Jolene, oh no Jolene
Why you wanna throw my love away?
Jolene, oh no Jolene
Why you wanna do me, do me this way?
Jolene, why you wanna do me this way?
Came in here tonight, I didn’t know just what to say.
It seems I’ve lost my love in the strangest way.
The look on your face told me everything I need to know.
Guess I should’ve believed you when you said how far you’d go
Chorus:
Jolene, oh no Jolene
Why you wanna throw my love away?
Jolene, oh no Jolene
Why you wanna do me, do me this way?
She said there aint no need to lie, cause you told her everything.
Then she took off and threw down her wedding ring.
I sat there with tears in my eyes, begging her not to go.
Knowing deep in the back of my mind; you reap just what you sow.
Chorus:
Jolene, oh no Jolene
Why you wanna throw my love away?
Jolene, oh no Jolene
Why you wanna do me, do me this way?
They say to be weary of a woman scorned.....
And now I can tell that they weren't wrong.
I can hear your words like your speaking to me still.
“If I can’t have you, then no one can.”
Chorus:
Jolene, oh no Jolene
Why you wanna throw my love away?
Jolene, oh no Jolene
Why you wanna do me, do me this way?
Jolene, why you wanna do me this way?
