Jolene

 I’m not sure what I’m doing.  I have been listening to this on repeat for days. 

Now D wont stop asking me whats wrong, and I just wish I could disappear.  I dont have it in me for another one of these 4 month breakups where he never actually leaves.

I bought a pack of cigarettes.  It had been 4 months.  I havent really eaten in days.  I just dont know.  I just dont know.

Ray LaMontagne Jolene

 

Cocaine flame in my bloodstream
Sold my coat when I hit Spokane
Bought myself a hard pack of cigarettes in the early morning rain
Lately my hands they don’t feel like mine
My eyes been stung with dust, I’m blind
Held you in my arms one time
Lost you just the same

 

Jolene
I ain’t about to go straight
It’s too late
I found myself face down in the ditch
Booze on 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
Ah, La, La, La, La, La
Jolene

 

Been so long since I seen your face
or felt a part of this human race
I’ve been living out of this here suitcase for way too long
A man needs something he can hold onto
A nine pound hammer or a woman like you
Either one of them things will do

 

Jolene
I ain’t about to go straight
It’s too late
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
La, La, La, La, La, La, La
Jolene
La, La, La, La, La, La, La
Jolene
