What it is
"Jolene" is a song written and recorded by Dolly Parton and the title track of her 1974 album Jolene. The narrator confronts Jolene, a strikingly beautiful woman she fears will take her partner, and the song leaves open whether Jolene actually means to. Parton has said a red-haired bank clerk who flirted with her husband shortly after they married inspired the song.
