A wildly insecure song. The speaker feels that this is her one and only shot at happiness in life, so she pleads with who she feels to be the better woman to not ruin it for her. Jolene could find happiness with lots of other guys, but the speaker doesn't feel that she herself could do the same.
Dolly's voice is so beautiful. I don't think it's possible for anybody to do a cover of one of her songs that's better than the original(and that's including Whitney's butching of "I Will Always Love You").
@bokononist Agreed with this. And remember that this isn't about whether or not the guy would stray - it's about her fear. Even if he loves her with every bit of his heart, she's still going to worry. Insecurity is insidious that way.
