Parton, Dolly - Jolene (New String Version) Lyrics






Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene
I'm beggin' 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 flamin' locks of auburn hair
With ivory skin and eyes of emerald green

Your smile is like a breath of spring
Your voice is soft like summer rain
I cannot compete with you, Jolene

Oh, but he talks about you in his sleep
And there's nothin' I can do to keep
From cryin' when he calls your name, Jolene

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 beggin' of you, please don't take my man

Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene
Please don't take him just because you can

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
Whatever you decide to do, Jolene

Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene
I'm beggin' of you, please don't take my man

Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene
Please don't take him just because you can

Jolene, Jolene

    .

  24. A.... D....

    Beautiful music from a beautiful lady.

  25. J.... M....

  26. D.... T....

    People constantly talk about rap artists and Beyonce but then u get Dolly who does this how amazing is this love to see drake be this inventive at 72

  27. J.... C....

    Am I the only one who sees a Jack White correlation here? Love them both!

  29. T.... ....

    Perfection

  30. S.... U....

    Amazing! Keep going Dolly.. We Love you!!

  31. P.... P....

    Superbly done...expressive remastering from a great vocal master. Dolly has a way of making her older songs into something revitalized and amazing. I'm so glad to see her back in action.

  32. L.... W....

    How does she do it!?! Pure talent 😍❤️❤️

  33. J.... D....

  39. E.... C....

    DOLLY MIGHT BE 70'S BUT SHE OUT SINGS TODAY;S SINGERS

  40. S.... A....

    I love country music. I love classical string music. I think the two of them being combined is not the best of ideas. Not everything needs to be crossed over

  41. M.... P....

    This is so hauntingly beautiful!

  42. D.... S....

    Improve perfection? Okay.....

  43. m.... t....

    Dolly we love you always and forever. Thank you.

  44. E.... B....

  45. P.... R....

    This is the best version of this often too sweetly sick song but sung with real emotions Dolly what a singer

  46. S.... ....

    beautiful

  47. M.... ....

    This is a ghost story. But who is the ghost? The singer or the listener?

  48. J.... B....

    I love this version. Ive loved Dolly since i was a little girl & i would love to go to her them park.

  49. D.... A....

    Dolly has such a beautiful soothing voice❤️

  53. A.... u....

  54. s.... ....

    My dad and I watched Dolly on television as far back as the Porter Wagner show days...and always loved her. Bravo, Dolly!

  55. J.... H....

    Would love to hear Ms Dolly and 2Cellos doing a rendition of song

  56. K.... A....

  57. M.... C....

    You Hokes do the deed. One generation to the next. Fantastic!

  58. g.... l....

  59. S.... S....

    I love it! It goes right to my soul, I am listening on my earphones, again and again!

  60. K.... S....

    Both versions are just as good.

  61. S.... S....

    Amazing arrangement from Austin Hoke, one of the youngest and finest in music today.

  62. T.... ....

    Incredible, and at 72, to have a voice so pure and clear it's like mountain water flowing, just amazing.

  63. F.... N....

    A rainha da musica americana

  64. J.... R....

    TENNESSEE IS SO PROUD OF DOLLY. SHE IS OUR PATRON SAINT.

  65. E.... M....

    Still as beautiful as the original, love the voice!

  66. Y.... Y....

    Dolly😍😍😍😍😍

  67. K.... H....

    This Song sounds bad 👎

    K.... H....

    You're just stupid

  68. v.... _....

    This song will never get old

  69. A.... G....

    Tracy martell is shook

  70. B.... B....

    Wow. Amazing,beautiful voice. Never ages Dolly

  71. M.... B....

    Why doesn't radio play this🙄🙄

  72. M.... B....

    Wow very haunting sound awesome

  73. C.... C....

    Chill bumps absolutely amazing💕🌹

  74. J.... ....

    I Will Always 💘 You deserves this treatment. Back to the studio, Ms Parton!!

  75. N.... D....

    And I practically grew up on Dolly. She really got her start on the Porter Waggoner show.

  76. R.... L....

    I love your songs

  77. N.... D....

    Love it!! The way her voice breaks when she says Jolene is heartbreaking

  78. S.... ....

    It's been 45+ years since the original "Jolene" and Dolly's still got it. Absolutely lovely, haunting rendition.
    The very best singers can use age-related voice changes to their advantage. That's what Dolly just did here.

  79. O.... J....

    This is so beautiful Dolly! Love you !

  80. T.... ....

    Your voice has changed a lot, cuz.

    T.... ....

    More of a rock n' roll rasp. I like.

  81. H.... C....

    PLEASE RELEASE THE NEW HERE YOU COME AGAIN!!!! So excited! ❤️💙💜

  82. K.... C....

    beautiful

  83. N.... ....

    45 years later and this song has aged like Dolly, like fine wine :)

  84. C.... ....

    Never beg another woman not to steal your man. Let him have her. He's an adulterer. Letvthe Jo lenes have these assholes until another Jo lene comes into her life and Karma happens. So sick of this stupid glorified song.

  85. S.... G....

    Amazing version by an angel!

  86. B.... H....

    Gotta admit I CRIED just because it's so beautiful and intense I worship her

  87. H.... M....

    Awesome!! Beautiful and so full of passion

  88. L.... L....

    I thought I was tired of this song......but WOW what a fantastic remake!!!! I could listen to this track for hours. I do love you!!!!

  89. V.... B....

    Please don't take my man
    Love him . Please don't take him . Love him❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️I will stop loving 💝💝💝💝💝

  90. A.... x....

    Beautiful dolly

  91. G.... A....

    Non mi piace! preferisco la versione originale.

  92. C.... M....

    This is breathtaking. It takes an already perfect song and heightens it's pain, hurt, and haunting shadow. Dolly sounds flawless over the orchestra. Now I am craving an all-orchestrated Dolly album!

    C.... M....

    it's a string octet arranged by Austin Hoke and recorded with Dolly in the studio - no overdubbing!

    C.... M....

    This reminds of Hurt when Johnny Cash sang it. It was a good song to begin with but put a hurtful twist on it and it changes so much. I love it.

  93. �.... �....

    Лучшее, что я когда либо слышала❤️

  94. D.... l....

    Awesome

  95. A.... D....

    this is way better thankyou :) x

  96. T.... S....

    I love this song and it gets better

  97. D.... H....

    I love that song Dollyparton
