Jesse lyrics

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

Jesse, I won't cut fresh flowers for you

No, Jesse, I won't make the wine cold for you

No, 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

Jesse, I won't cut fresh flowers for you

No, Jesse, I won't make the wine cold for you

No, Jesse, I won't change the sheets for you

I won't put on cologne

I won't sit by the phone for you

No, no, no

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 heaven again

Because you've come back to me

Oh, Jesse...

Jesse, I'll always cut fresh flowers for you

And Jesse, I'll always make the wine cold for you

Oh, Jesse, I can easily change my mind about you

And put on cologne

And sit by the phone for you

Oh, yeah

Jesse, let's open the wine

And drink to the heart

Which has a will of it's own

My friends

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

And Jesse, I will make the wine cold for you

Oh, Jesse, I will change the sheets for you

Put on cologne

And I will wait by the phone for you

Oh, Jesse

Oh, Jesse...

Jesse, I will cut fresh flowers for you

And Jesse, we'll make the wine cold for you

Oh, Jesse, and I will change the sheets for you...
