[Verse]
Cocaine flame
in my bloodstr
eam
Sold my coat w
hen I hit Spok
ane
Bought myself
a hard pack of
cigarettes
in the early m
orning rain
Lately my ha
nds they don't
feel like min
e
My eyes been s
tung with dust
and blind
Held you in my
arms one time
Lost you just
the same
[Chorus]
Jolene... I
ain't about t
/
o go
straight...
It's too late
[Verse]
I found myself
face down in
a ditch
Booze in my ha
ir and blood o
n my lips
A picture of y
ou holding a p
icture of me
In the pocket
of my blue jea
ns
I still don'
t know what lo
ve means
Still don't kn
ow what love m
eans
Jolene... La l
a la la la la
la
Jolene...
Been so long s
ince I seen yo
ur face
Or felt a part
of this human
race
I've been livi
ng out of this
here suitcase
for way too lo
ng
A man needs so
mething he can
hold onto
A nine pound h
ammer or a wom
an like you
Either one of
them things wi
ll do
[Chorus]
Jolene... I
ain't about t
/
o go
straight...
It's too late
[Verse]
I found myself
face down in
a ditch
Booze in my ha
ir and blood o
n my lips
A picture of y
ou holding a p
icture of me
In the pocket
of my blue jea
ns
I still don'
t know what lo
ve means
Still don't kn
ow what love m
eans
[Outro]
