Verse
A G
She’s raising cattle, she’s raising bars
F#m B7
She ain’t got time for the evening stars
A E A
She gets up at five every morning
A G
She’s got a bucket in her hand
F#m B7
Spilling poison on the neighbour’s land
A E A A7
Always brings a smile to that pretty face
[Chorus]
D C#m C#m7
She’s gonna put you six feet under
F#7 B7 E E7
She’s gonna put you in the ground
D C#m C#m7
She’s gonna make you scream blue thunder
D D D A
That girl will surely put you down
[Verse 2]
A G
In the village, into the church
F#m B7
Calls a priest and from her curse
A E A
Hands him the money, walks away redeemed
A G
They close their doors, they close the blinds
F#m B7
As she makes her way to Clementine’s
A E A A7
We’re the only place that serves her here
[Chorus]
D C#m C#m7
She’s gonna put you six feet under
F#7 B7 E E7
She’s gonna put you in the ground
D C#m C#m7
Somehow I cannot help but wonder
D D D A
When she is gonna put me down
A G D C
Black Jolene, why so mean?

Black Jolene, why so mean?

Black Jolene, why so mean?
