Cocaine flame in my bloodstream

 Sold my coat when I hit Spokane

Bought myself a hard pack of cigarettes

 In the early mornin' rain

Lately my hands they don't feel like mine

 My eyes been stung with dust and blind

Held you in my arms one time

 Lost you just the same

Jolene

Well, I ain't about to go straight, it's too late

And I found myself face down in the ditch

Booze in my hair, blood on my lips

A picture of you holding a picture of me

In the pocket of my blue jeans

Still don't know what love means

Still don't know what love means

Jolene

Jolene

It's been so long since I've seen your face

 Or felt a part of this human race

I've been living out of this here suitcase

 For way too long

Man needs something he can hold onto

 Nine pound hammer or a woman like you

 Either one of them things will do

Jolene

Well, I ain't about to go straight, it's too late

And I found myself face down in the ditch

Booze in my hair, blood on my lips

A picture of you holding a picture of me

In the pocket of my blue jeans

Still don't know what love means

Still don't know what love means

Jolene

Jolene

Cocaine flame in my bloodstream

Sold my coat when I hit Spokane
