My name is Jolene, but I hate that song I was baptized in a river when I was young And Jesus forgives me for all of my sins 'Cept maybe that one when we were kids
I came from south Texas' killer party scene Somehow, the wanting turned to a need I had a decent boyfriend 'til he got mean He'd hit me so hard that the room used to spin
So, say that you love me before we both end up in hell I'm not asking for your forgiveness Couldn't run if I wanted to now Say that you miss me Tell me sweet, sweet little lies Humor me, Vincent After tonight, I won't be home for a while
Now, I would fly solo to the rodeo dance Cover my bruises in a Maybelline mask I'd wait 'til he passed out, he did it most nights I'd go to meet Vincent to come back to life
Nobody knew, but inside I'd break There was always this screaming, in between, I'd just wait One night, I suppose, finally drove me insane I stabbed him once and I stabbed him again
So, say that you love me before we both end up in hell I'm not asking for your forgiveness Couldn't run if I wanted to now Say that you miss me Tell me sweet, sweet little lies Humor me, Vincent After tonight, I won't be home for a while
I used to love the smell of the carnival How the tilt-a-whirl was setting us free I'm sure gonna miss the summer How the lights used to light up in me But I better go, Vincent, I love you more than you know God bless you, old friend I don't think I'll ever see you again
