Cocaine flame in my bloodstream
|
Sold my coat when I hit Spokane
|
Bought myself a hard pack of cigarettes in the early morning rain
|
Lately my hands they don't feel like mine
|
My eyes been stung with dust, I'm blind
|
Held you in my arms one time
|
Lost you just the same
|
Jolene
|
I ain't about to go straight
|
It's too late
|
I found myself face down in the ditch
|
Booze on my hair
|
Blood on my lips
|
A picture of you, holding a picture of me
|
in the pocket of my blue jeans
|
Still don't know what love means
|
Still don't know what love means
|
Jolene
|
Ah, La, La, La, La, La
|
Jolene
|
Been so long since I seen your face
|
or felt a part of this human race
|
I've been living out of this here suitcase for way too long
|
A man needs something he can hold onto
|
A nine pound hammer or a woman like you
|
Either one of them things will do
|
Jolene
|
I ain't about to go straight
|
It's too late
|
I found myself face down in the ditch
|
Booze in my hair
|
Blood on my lips
|
A picture of you, holding a picture of me
|
In the pocket of my blue jeans
|
Still don't know what love means
|
Still don't know what love means
|
Jolene
|
La, La, La, La, La, La, La
|
Jolene
|
La, La, La, La, La, La, La
|
Jolene
