[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 mor

       
ning rain

             
Lately my hand

    
s they don't f

eel like mine
              
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 

           
to go straight

It's too late
             
I found myself

             
 face down in 

    
a ditch

Booze in my ha

ir

Blood in my lips

A picture of y

ou holding a p

icture of me
              
In the pocket 

             
of my blue jea

 
ns

           
Still don't kn

             
ow what love m

eans
           
Still don't kn

             
ow what love m

    
eans

[Verse]


Been so long s

ince I seen yo

ur face
              
Or felt a part

 race
              
I've been livi

              
ng out of this

              
 here suitcase

              
 for way too l

   
ong


A man needs so

mething he can

 hold onto
              
A nine pound h

an like you
              
Either one of 

              
them things wi

[Chorus]

    
Jolene 
         
I ain't about
