(x2) The sun so high and lonely burst into flame     I was her one and only she was my same       Don't cry for me jolene  Wipe your tears away Been an orphan since i was born and I been dyin since that day  I chase her west for hours she slips away      Long dark clouds come between us she cries like rain Don't cry for me jolene  Wipe your tears away Been an orphan since i was born and I been dyin since that day  On and on i will run If i can keep up with you i'll stay young forever I got to california she dropped in the ocean   I felt the world inside me turn another day older Don't cry for me jolene  Wipe your tears away Been an orphan since i was born and I been dyin since that day  (x2)
