Black Jolene Songtext
von Douwe Bob

she′s raising cattle
she's raising bars
she ain′t got time for the evening stars
she gets up at five every morning

she's got a bucket in her hand
spilling poison on the neighbour's land
always brings a smile to that pretty face

she′s gonna put you six feet under
she′s gonna put you in the ground
she's gonna make you scream blue thunder
that girl will surely put you down


in the village
into the church
calls a priest and from her purse
hands him the money
walks away redeemed

they close their doors
they close the blinds
as she makes her way to Clementine′s
we're the only place that serves her here

she′s gonna put you six feet under
she's gonna put you in the ground
somehow I cannot help but wonder
when she is gonna put me down

Black Jolene
why so mean
