There’s one thousand ladies in each and every room
That act as determined as you do
You a hen, pass on and sing your song, Jolene (what)
I needed to have this communicate with you
‘Motive I hate to need to act a idiot
Your peace will depend on how you progress, Jolene
Me and my guy crossed the ones valleys
Highs and lows and the whole lot between
You probably did roll in like tumbling weeds
I sleep just right satisfied, ’purpose you’ll be able to’t dig up our planted seeds
I do know my guy’s gonna stand by means of me inhaling my delicate breeze
