JOLENE
Beyoncé
(Jolene) (Jolene) Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene I'm warnin' you, don't come for my man (Jolene) Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene Don't take the chance because you think you can You're beautiful beyond compare Takes more than beauty and seductive stares To come between a family and a happy man Jolene, I'm a woman too The games you're play are nothing new So you don't want no heat with me, Jolene We been deep in love for twenty years I raised that man, I raised his kids I know my man better than he knows himself (uh, what?) I can easily understand why you're attracted to my man But you don't want this smoke So shoot your shot with someone else (you heard me) Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene I'm warnin' you, woman, find you your own man Jolene, I know I'm a queen, Jolene I'm still a Creole banjee bitch from Louisiana (don't try me) There's a thousand girls in every room That act as desperate as you do You a bird, go on and sing your tune, Jolene (what?) I had to have this talk with you 'Cause I hate to have to act a fool Your peace depends on how you move, Jolene Me and my man crossed those valleys Highs and lows and everything between Good deeds roll in like tumbling weeds I sleep good happy 'cause you can't dig up our planted seeds I know my man's gon' stand by me breathing in my gentle breeze (ah) I crossed those valleys Highs and lows and everything between Good deeds roll in like tumbling weeds Sleep good and happy 'cause you can't dig up them planted seeds Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene I'ma stand by her, she gon' stand by me, Jolene I'ma stand by him, he gon' stand by me (I'ma stand by her, she gon' stand by me) I'ma stand by him, he gon' stand by me, Jolene
