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
