Oh mother, say a prayer for me
                                               
Jesse's back in town, it won't be easy
(4thf)        (4thf)
Don't let him near me
                
Don't let him touch me
                    
Don't let him please me

       (4thf)            
Jesse, I won't cut fresh flowers for you
        (4thf)          
No Jesse, I won't make the wine cold for you
        (4thf)          
No Jesse, I won't change the sheets for you
(4thf)     
I won't put on cologne
         (4thf)                 
I won't sit by the phone for you    


                         
Annie, keep reminding me
                          
That he cut out my heart like a paper doll
(4thf)        (4thf)
Sally, tell me once again
                          
How he set me up just to see me fall

    (4thf)            
Jesse, I won't cut fresh flowers for you
        (4thf)          
No Jesse, I won't make the wine cold for you
        (4thf)          
No Jesse, I won't change the sheets for you
(4thf)     
I won't put on cologne
         (4thf)                 
I won't sit by the phone for you      No, no, no, no, no

 
Jesse, quick come here
    
I won't tell a soul "Not even myself"
(2ndf)
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
                                 
And 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, 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'll always make the wine cold for you
                                 
And Jesse, I can easily change my mind about you
     
And put on cologne
                          
And sit by the phone for you..
                  
Oh Jesse  ..la la la...
