He’s Yours (Jolene’s Reply)
He’s yours, He’s yours
He’s yours, He’s yours
Take him, I really doubt I could
He’s yours, He’s yours
He’s yours, He’s yours
But given half the chance I likely would
My auburn hair is turning white
It’s me who lies alone at night
My skin perhaps it once did glow
But guilt and worry start to show
My smile it doesn’t long remain
My voice is cracked with secret pain
And I cannot ever win, my friend
In sleep perhaps his voice may raise
I wouldn’t know, he never stays
You’re not the only one who cries, my friend
And I don’t think you understand
How much I really love your man
You just don’t know what he means to me, my friend
He’s yours, He’s yours
He’s yours, He’s yours
Take him, I really doubt I could
He’s yours, He’s yours
He’s yours, He’s yours
But given half the chance I likely would
Of course there are other men,
And I could always start again
But he’s the only one for me, my friend
My happiness would so hurt you
And I just don’t know what to do, my friend
My soulmate is another’s man
And take him, i don’t think I can
He’s yours, my friend.

Can you spare me some change?
Verse 1
Can you spare me some change?
I gotta get home
My babies are there
And they’re all alone.
Chorus
They’re watching for me
They need me
They’re waiting for me
They need me.
Verse 2
I hate it when we
Are far apart
But at least they know
I carry their hearts.
Chorus
Verse 3
Sometimes we find
The air is not clear
And the way it winds
Don’t lead to our dears.
Chorus
Verse 4
I wish it were
Within my power
To get straight back home
Not lose another hour.
Cause they’re waiting for me.
Cause they’re waiting for me.
