Well you're coming down High Street walking in the sun You make a dead man rise and holler she's the one Jolene, Jolene Baby I am the king and you're the queen Well it's a long old highway that don't ever end I got a Saturday Night Special I'm back again I'll sleep by your door lay my life on the line You probably don't know but I'm gonna make you mine Jolene, Jolene Baby I am the king and you is the queen I keep my hands in my pocket I'm movin' along People think they know but they're all wrong You're something nice I'm gonna bet my dice I can't say I haven't paid the price Jolene Jolene Baby I am the king and you is the queen Well I found out the hard way I've had my fill You can't fight somebody with his back to a hill Those big brown eyes they set off a spark If you hold me in your arms things don't look so dark Jolene Jolene Baby I am the king and you're the queen
