Oh mother, say a prayer for me
|
Jesse's back in town, it won't be easy
|
Don't let him near me
|
Don't let him touch me
|
Don't let him please me
|
|
[Chorus:]
|
Jesse, I won't cut fresh flowers for you
|
Jesse, I won't make the wine cold for you
|
Jesse, I won't change the sheets for you
|
I won't put on cologne
|
I won't sit by the phone for you
|
|
Annie, keep reminding me
|
That he cut out my heart like a paper doll
|
Sally, tell me once again
|
How he set me up just to see me fall
|
|
[Chorus]
|
|
Jesse, quick come here
|
I won't tell a soul
|
Not even myself
|
Jesse, that you've come back to me
|
My friends will all say "She's gone again'
|
But how can anyone know what you are to me
|
That I'm in heave again because you've come back to me - Oh Jessie!
|
|
Jesse, I'll always cut fresh flowers for you
|
Jesse, I'll always make the wine cold for you
|
Jesse, I can easily change my mind about you
|
And put on cologne
|
And sit by the phone for you
|
|
Jesse, let's open the wine
|
And drink to the heart
|
Which has a will of it's own
|
My friends, let's comfort them
|
They're feeling bad
|
They think I've sunk so low
|
|
Jesse, I'll always cut fresh flowers for you
|
Jesse, I'll always make the wine cold for you
|
Jesse, I will change the sheets for you
|
Put on cologne
|
And I will wait by the phone for you - Oh Jesse!
