[Intro] [Verse 1] Jolene, I ain’t calling for your man I don’t want your trouble, I don’t want your land Mama says he’s got my daddy’s age Same worn smile, same second stage I don’t cross lines, I don’t steal rings I don’t chase heat in borrowed things But he keeps knocking on my door With a buzz at midnight, then a little bit more [Pre-Chorus] I tried to laugh, I tried to pray Tried to swipe that foolishness away But some men don’t read the room They just keep digging with a silver spoon [Chorus] Jolene, I swear on dirt and stone That fool of yours sent me a picture of his bone I don’t want it, I don’t need the view I’m writing this just to make him stop, for you [Verse 2] He did it once, said “sorry, my bad” Did it again like we were something he had Did it today, and I won’t lie It’s not a pretty sight, not a thing to try Maybe time’s been rough on him Maybe mirrors just stopped working in Or maybe he’s just what he seems A cheap old fart with dirty needs [Pre-Chorus] I won’t keep messes I didn’t make Some truths are better at full break This ain’t gossip, this ain’t spite Just daylight cutting through the night [Chorus] Jolene, I swear on dirt and stone That fool of yours sent me a picture of his bone I don’t want it, I don’t need the view I’m writing this just to make him stop, for you [Bridge] Don’t you put this on me now I don’t break homes, I don’t steal vows Wipe your eyes and hear me through This mess walked in with him, not you [Chorus] Jolene, I swear on dirt and stone That fool of yours sent me a picture of his bone I don’t want it, I don’t need the view I’m writing this just to make him stop, for you... Jolene, I’m done being polite Tell him the trail ends here tonight No more courage after dark No more trying to leave a mark Jolene, I swear on dirt and stone That fool of yours sent me a picture of his bone I don’t want it, I don’t need the view I’m writing this just to make him stop, for you... ... I don’t want it, I don’t need the view I’m writing this just to make him stop, for you...
