Jolene

Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene
I'm begging of you please don't take my man
Jolene, jolene, jolene, jolene
Please don't take him just because you can
Your beauty is beyond compare
With flaming locks of auburn hair
With ivory skin and eyes of emerald green
Your smile is like a breath of spring
Your skin is soft like summer rain
And I cannot compete with you, Jolene...

Jolene is a Dolly Parton cover
Featuring: Jamie Arentzen(Guitar), Jaco Curaco(Guitar), Paul Hager (Sound Engineer), Filmed and edited by: Kevin & Rebecca Joelson

  • People can say what they will about Miley Cyrus, but that girl can sing.
  • @cazzag9526
    This girl was born to sing country music. Fantastic.
  • @telugoe
    The fact that she's owned this cover since she was 20.
  • @jimrusconi3578
    Sometimes I forget how talented Miley is. This is a good reminder.
  • @ASMRconKiki
    This seems to be the perfect style for her voice!
  • @joniarmel7308
    I’ve been listening to this for a few years now and always are amazed how country singing comes so naturally to Miss Cyrus . Let’s not ignore this sensational group of musicians backing her . This rocks !!!!!!
  • @OramaLand
    The best "Jolene" version. Absolutely!
  • @jfrd-pw4hk
    Man, she sounds sooo good in this type of music.
  • @musiclova2112
    Miley, when this came out I was homeless, on drugs, and then jail. I now have a house, job, and husband. This song and “Clover Cage - In the Moment” are the two songs that helped get rid of my depression. I just want to send love to everyone and I want everyone to know things will get better. We are in this together..I love you 💕
  • What makes this so much cooler is the fact that Dolly Parton is her godmother
  • @frkls1428
    Can you all just take a moment to stop and appreciate Miley - She has been one of the most slept on artist of my 34 years on this earth! The voice, the range, the discipline. Miley should always and forever be protected at all cost. No matter what she is singing, Miley will cover my body in goose bubbles every. single. time. 🖤🤍🖤🤍
  • @intheshell35ify
    This is the Miley Cyrus I will remember forever. Pure talent
  • @lindymaj
    She did the song justice ❤️
  • @aradhanap97
    I will never understand how this girl covers songs like they are her original ones. It's completely insane to think how versatile she is
  • @adamspivey
    It's just such a sad song when you really think about it. Love is a blessing and a curse at times.
