    Beyonce’s Rendition of Dolly Parton’s “Jolene” on Cowboy Carter Album Receives Seal of Approval from Dolly

    Beyonce made major tweaks to the lyrics of Dolly Parton’s hit 1973 song, Jolene, as she covered the track on her Cowboy Carter album – which officially dropped on Thursday. 

    The singer’s country-themed album contains a total of 27 tracks that not only contains the Jolene cover with new lyrics, but also an interlude from Parton herself. 

    A big alteration that was made occurred in the chorus, with the original seeing Dolly pleading with another woman. However, Beyonce, 42, changed the lyrics to give a stern warning to the woman to not ‘come for my man.’ 

    ‘Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene/I’m warning you, don’t come for my man/Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene/Don’t take the chance because you think you can,’ the Crazy In Love performer sings. 

    While Parton’s lyrics had been: ‘Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene/I’m begging of you please don’t take my man/Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene/Please don’t take him just because you can.’

    Beyonce also made changes to lyrics in the verses as well, such as in verse one. Dolly had originally sung about the woman’s beauty while also belting out, ‘I cannot compete with you.’ 

    In Beyonce’s version, she instead sang: ‘You’re beautiful beyond compare/Takes more than beauty and seductive stares/To come between a family and a happy man.’ 

    ‘Jolene I’m a woman too/The games you are playing are nothing new/So you don’t want no heat with me, Jolene,’ she further warned. 

    As the star transitioned into the chorus once again, the lyrics also included: ‘I’m warning you woman, find you your own man/Jolene, I know I’m a queen, Jolene/I’m still a Creole banjee b***h from Louisiana (Don’t try me).’ 

    Towards the end of the second verse, Beyonce added lyrics to show that she had the confidence her man would stay by her side. 

    ‘Good deeds roll in like tumbling weeds/I sleep good happy, cause you can’t dig up our planted seeds/I know my man’s gon’ stand by me breathing in my gentle breeze.’ 

    The cover concluded with a bridge as the songstress was joined by a choir as they belted out: ‘I crossed those valleys, highs and lows and everything between/Good deeds roll in like tumbling weeds.’ 

    ‘Good and happy cause you can’t dig up them planted seeds/Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene.’ 

    'Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene/I'm warning you, don't come for my man/Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene/Don't take the chance because you think you can,' the Crazy In Love performer sings

    Beyonce then briefly sang in the perspective of her man and sang, ‘I’ma stand by her/She gon’ stand by me/Jolene I’ma stand by him/He gon’ stand by me Jolene.’

    Earlier this month, Dolly hinted that the singer may have covered Jolene and gave her thoughts during an interview with Knox News. 

    ‘Well, I think she has! I think she’s recorded Jolene and I think it’s probably gonna be on her country album, which I’m very excited about that,’ the Here You Come Again hitmaker stated. 

    She also gushed, ‘I love her! She’s a beautiful girl and a great singer. We’ve kind of sent messages back and forth through the years.’ 

    ‘And she and her mother were like fans, and I was always touched that they were fans, and I always thought she was great.’ 

    Back in 2022, Parton had expressed her wish for Beyonce to cover her track Jolene. While on The Daily Show With Trevor Noah, she stated, ‘I think she’s fantastic and beautiful, and I love her music.’ 

    ‘I would just love to hear Jolene done in just a big way, kind of like how Whitney [Houston] did my I Will Always Love You.’ 

    'Jolene I'm a woman too/The games you are playing are nothing new/So you don't want no heat with me, Jolene,' she further warned

    Dolly added, ‘Just someone that can take my little songs and make them like powerhouses. That would be a marvelous day in my life if she ever does do Jolene.’ 

    The host then questioned if Beyonce had knowledge of the wish and Parton replied with, ‘I don’t know if she’s even got the message, but wouldn’t that be killer?’ 

    Just two years later, the country icon’s wish came true – and she also had the opportunity to appear on Beyonce’s eighth studio album to voice an interlude.
