Jolene ist ein Song aus der siebten Folge der dritten Staffel, I kissed a girl and I liked it, und wird Shannon Beiste gesungen. Sie singt ihn, weil Sue ihr Cooter Menkins weggeschnappt hat und sie es mit ansehen muss, ohne etwas dagegen unternehmen zu können.
Das Original stammt von Dolly Parton aus ihrem dreizehnten, gleichnamigen Album "Jolene" aus dem Jahr 1973.
Lyrics[]
Shannon:
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
Your beauty is beyond compare
With flaming locks of golden 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
There's 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 don't know what he means to me, Jolene
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, Jolene
You could have your choice of men
But I could never love again
He's 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, Jolene
Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene
I'm begging of you please don't take my man
Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene
Please don't take him even though you can
Jolene, (Jolene)
Jolene
