Song information
If you've never heard Dolly Parton's classic, 'Jolene', then you're about to dive into my quirky adventure - one filled with musical twists and playful mischief! I absolutely adore that song, but I couldn't resist spicing things up a bit. Enter Roxanne, my dog's adorable puppy pal who somehow transformed into a sultry temptress and notorious heartbreaker, just like Jolene herself. And yes, I threw in the infamous line, "Please don't take my man," just to stir the pot and keep everyone guessing... Let the fun begin!

Lyrics
Verse 1
Roxanne, Roxanne, don't steal him if you can 
Your beauty's like a spell I understand 
Emerald eyes and raven hair, he whispers when you're there
But Roxanne, please don't take my man

Verse 2
Roxanne, Roxanne, I’m pleading once again 
I've seen him stare, I've watched the way he stands 
He dreams your name in sleep, my heart just can't compete 
Oh Roxanne, please don't take my man

Chorus
He smiles at me, but I can see 
He's longing for your mystery 
You have the charm, you hold the key Roxanne, 
Roxanne, don't take my man from me

Verse 3
Roxanne, Roxanne, he's all I've ever planned 
My happiness rests softly in your hands 
Your laughter fills his ears, you've touched his hidden fears 
Oh Roxanne, please don't take my man

Chorus
He smiles at me, but I can see 
He's longing for your mystery
You have the charm, you hold the key 
Roxanne, Roxanne, don't take my man from me

Bridge
I beg you now, my heart laid bare 
Can’t you find your love elsewhere?
You’ve got your choice of any man 
So, Roxanne, Roxanne, please understand

Outro
Roxanne, Roxanne, please hear me while you can 
Don't take the one who wears my wedding band 
My world's within his eyes, without him I'd just die 
Oh Roxanne, please don't take my man 
Oh Roxanne, please don't take my man

This was a beauty. Your voice reminds me a bit of Emmy Lou Harris. The 3 of you sound as pristine pro as can be. What program do you use to record? Inspiration can come from the most unexpected places- I know that for a fact!! Excellent

Gourgeous vocals as usual.   First class country tune and production.   I'm not much of a country fan usually, but I dig this. The stations that play that stuff around here would eat this up.
