Lyrics:
I ain't about to go straight
It's too late
I found myself face-down in a ditch
Booze on my hair, blood on my lips
A picture of you, holding a picture of me
In the pocket of my blue jeans
Still don't know what love means
Still don't know what love means
Jolene
Ah, la, la, la, la, la
Jolene
#RayLaMontagne #Jolene #FolkMusic
Playing Jolene on repeat at 224am, alone, on a full moon night in August. I've lived in four places and I've had moments playing this song in every one of them. Driving back mountain roads in the smokies, walking the rainy Streets of New Orleans, and now here singing along in humid rust belt Pennsylvania. Never been to Spokane, but I've lived this song. It takes me back to somewhere I've been too long, and takes me back to somewhere I've never even been at all. God bless you Ray LaMontagne. Your poetry and your voice is better than any therapy I could ever find.
Amen
Indeed
I’m from Spokane and this is definitely the kind of place where, down on your luck you, might sell your coat for a pack of smokes. Dirty streets surrounded by pine forests, beautiful and perfect for a song like this
Yes!!! Lol. Ive had many of those nights with this one! Cuts me to the bone!
Same for me...
Hugs and kisses to all the beautiful people who love this song. We have a beautiful souls.❤️
You’re so right. Was just on the brink of tears listening to it. Peace and love to you ❤️
Good always triumphs over evil. Ray is so good. So is SADE. And there are many of us in the world. I always try to remember that I am not alone. Fear Not, right?

Fear Not!

Being depressed after deployment brought me here. Thank you for the comforting sounds, man.
This needs more likes
He's a storyteller
Raw
Honest
It's beautiful
Stop indenting dumbass we get it
Hello Dear, it’s nice meeting you on here
Love the sound of your voice. Many of your songs are my go to. Thank you for sharing your talent with all of us 🇺🇸
Appreciate what humanity has to offer, accept humility and pain, and then do something with it.
Cocaine flame in my bloodstream
Sold my coat when I hit Spokane
Bought myself a hard pack of cigarettes
In the early morning rain
Lately, my hands they don't feel like mine
My eyes been stung with dust, I'm blind
Held you in my arms one time
Lost you just the same
Jolene
I ain't about to go straight
It's too late
I found myself face-down in a ditch
Booze on my hair, blood on my lips
A picture of you, holding a picture of me
In the pocket of my blue jeans
Still don't know what love means
Still don't know what love means
Jolene
Ah, la, la, la, la, la
Jolene
Been so long since I seen your face
Or felt a part of this human race
I've been living out of this here suitcase for way too long
A man needs something he can hold onto
Nine-pound hammer or a woman like you
Either one of them things will do
Jolene
I ain't about to go straight
It's too late
I found myself face down in a ditch
Booze in my hair, blood on my lips
A picture of you, holding a picture of me
In the pocket of my blue jeans
Still don't know what love means
Still don't know what love means
Jolene
La, la, la, la, la, la, la
Jolene
La, la, la, la, la, la, la
Jolene
Unreal.
"The Town" brought me here❤!
In the commentary on the blu ray - Ben talks about him wanting to have this for the credits bc it moves him so much everytime he hears it
I’ll be here till the day I die. ❤😊
If I could only listen to one person sing, it would be Ray. 💗
Me too....forever Amen♥️
So powerful ❤️
Some writers have the ability to paint as picture in your mind with their words, Croce, Kristofferson, and this man all have it, bellissimo!!🙏🙏
This song never ages. I feel it every time so strongly ❤
I remember hearing this song at the end of the movie The Town and it’s stuck with me all this time. Fell in love with your music after that.
Same here!
Same
Same here!
Same here!
Same here !
I cry to your songs at times, before i found your music im not sure if i ever really believed or knew someone else out there could understand to the depths of your music ray of how i have felt my whole life myself until i found your music. It's beautiful the music you make and in a way, it has given me the strength to go on in my own life. Thank you
I honestly was just thinking about a time in my life a few years ago that I lost faith and hope and honestly was scared that I would make it through some days. I learned to listen, really listen to music and it helped me through those darks months. First time I ever cried listening to a song was from Ray.
What an amazing gift he has and chooses to share with all of us. Music really does bring people together 💜
So happy to have found your music on UA-cam. May God bless you with a long and happy life. Love from India❤❤❤
I was about to write love from India too well no prob lol
His songs are my all time favourite. Also from India. Keep digging, there are many less recognised gems.
Here from India too! Corey Taylor brought me here
Good to see my fellow Indians appreciate good music.
I had discovered Ray in 2008 through a random reality show on TV. He was my friend and is in my lonely teenage years and now an adult.
From,
Bombay, India
I just heard the song from this movie called The town, then i went straight here. I love this song
I remember my Ray Lamontagne fave. I listen to every single song for months on end. Now my baby dad and his wife are both fans. I love it for them, he knows how to hit the spot, and I don’t mind sharing him. ❤
This song really hits me every time I hear it. So beautiful and moving in ways I can’t even describe. Ray, thanks for your lovely music, it fills my heart.
Hello Dear, it’s nice meeting you on here.
Man! That boy can sing! Talk about a unique voice.
How does this song have only 3k likes? We live in a tragic society when art like this is barely noticed and ultra processed songs with insanely stupid lyrics get millions of likes. Sad.
Welcome to mankind
It’s truly tragic
It makes me feel sad. But,most are so apathetic. They or their loved ones are drudged out or passed.
4:30
It's very sad. I'm dealing with it for 20 yrs.
My son is still alive.,but dying slowly, in front of of us.
I love how he lets the D-28 sing. And has the feeling of having too much fun and then misery in the city afterward.
I heard you on tv years ago--ran fast to get my daughter, Jenna Rose. We both fell for your voice, your songs, your acoustic style,I heard Trouble first. Then she listened to you with The Staves and Justin Vernon, in Berlin, doing "Jolene". Her boyfriend told me it was one of her faves! Tomorrow is her birthday-well, today by US EST. Jenna Rose died after fighting and beating 5 brain tumors with three surgeries. No complaints. But then she got Cancer, all stage 4-more tumors than could be counted. But still no complaints. She was an artist, a painter, a multi-media lover, a photographer, a computer whiz who was working on playing around with her pix, etc. digitally, but had REAL cameras, a writer, animal lover and knower there of, friends forever and a day all over the world for decades on veggie forums, and the like. so, I am listening to you and I am saying Happy Birthday to my sweet girl. Thank you so much! And do I ever love The Staves! Her Mom, Terri
Best version of this song hands down! Ray, your voice was blessed by both the angels and demons of the world. Beautifully haunting
This is the best live version of this song I've watched/heard. Such a talented artist.
How the hell is this man's voice so amazing
Sometimes, I just need to hear this song and then press repeat! Love this song! Great vocals.
I’ll love you Forever Jo’lene, thank you for changing my life. Sorry I couldn’t be the person you needed, I’ll always hold you in my heart. Jesse
So touching. What a storyteller he is.
Beautiful. Such lyrics and intensity. Poetry….and Rays voice really has that rugged sensitivity that makes you feel every word.
Here to feel the goosebumps all over again.
I am so intrigued by your voice. It's almost like you have read the diary of my heart and put music to my soul. Thank you for sharing your incredible gift 💜💜💜
I think you are a light in the world, too
Hello Dear, it’s nice meeting you on here!
I remember seeing this as an add for aol live sessions back in like 2006. I’ve been mesmerized ever since
Xoxo my boy Dubsy and the prettiest girl this side of the Mississippi, Jettsy…
I love hearing y’all sing this to each other….its jam and jelly moments to live for
I've loved like that, Ray. Thanks again for the honesty!
Hello Dear, it’s nice meeting you on here!
That was great!
Hello Dear, it’s nice meeting you on here!
still don’t know what love is💛💛💛💛💛
Beautiful 🖤🎶
Still here I see. Congratulations on having excellent taste in music.
I held you in my arms one time lost you just the same
Don’t have the words but it goes back to when this album dropped and this song. Oh my god .
I gotta learn this one. You got so many great songs ray. You are grossly underrated. If only more extremely famous musicians had your talent the radio waves wouldn't be filled with all the junk it is these days. Hope to hear some new music from you Ray. God bless you bub.
Most ppl don't know you, it's their loss... im so glad that i came across to ur songs... you are so awesom dude....
Que buena canción! Thanks Ray!!!
This is the best version.
He makes me miss people and places I never been to
Perfection
Your voice is my addiction....👌👌👌👌👌💓 Your are incredible ... God bless you...
Your song -Without words. ..will always be my favourite song...
His voice is just so peaceful
Hello there 👋 how are you doing today??
Remembering the first time I heard Ray. Such a subtle man. Tossled hair, and dressed plain and unassuming. Then this booming voice swelled out of his throat, demanding my attention!! I was a fan immediately! His dynamics are perfect in this song as he brings it down to a more personal level. Love his music!
Shut up
Music on a nightly loop while I sleep.
This track always sinks in my late 20's. Me doing dumb shit and F-ing up a relationship. I was to focused on alcohol and leaving home. USMC late 90's early 00's. Later in in life I found the girl of my dreams.
Takes some time to mature. Sometimes we even survive it to the sweet spot of real connection.
Still don't know what love means...❤
Cocaine flame in my bloodstream

HIs voice is ethereal... :)
Just watched The Town - Ending Song. Sad song. Great song. Strum on, Ray
The first song I ever heard from you. Probably my favorite of all time. Absolutely beautiful.
So happy I found this song again
Wow I thought I had my post all ready. Until I read the comments. Me 🤔 What do I say to kids of single mom that Ray hasn’t already said.. oh yeah .. I got your back. We are mighty we are strong. We are the future.. We built this country on rock ‘n’ roll. Don’t forget it oh and we also built this country on Customer Service and the Internet
My favorite music ever !
It made me cry
I love Ray. This is a hauntingly beautiful and bittersweet song...
The town film bought me here😊
I remember this. Must’ve been 12 years ago
His voice is perfect
I love him, I needed this. I’m crying
YOU ARE INCREDIBLE 💖💖💜🌹
That first verse, I get it man...deep, all gacked out on coke early morning selling a coat for some smokes.
You have a fan in me. Thank you for the many great and timeless classics. Peace
I am here again to sooth my heart with his voice. 🤗
Sitting in the Harris Teeter parking lot with 12 bud lights listen to this. There will be better times..
Love you, Ray. Thank you for bringing heart and beauty
Hello Dear, it’s nice meeting you on here!
Beautiful 👏🏻👏🏼👏🏽👏🏾👏🏻👏🏼👏🏽
Heart-touchingly beautiful. 😌💚✌
Thank you for sharing. 🙏💚
This song reminds me of an ex of mine that i miss. He could never get out of the game and then prison and the game again and back to behind walls. 😔 i had to let him go but never stopped caring about him.
What a gift!
So hard not to cry when I hear this.
Great to see more his music being uploaded to his youtube channel
I havent listened to this song in 10 years. I loved it then and i think maybe even more now. This is story telling, performing and writing at its finest.
My life story no joke
Nada mejor que hacer un intervalo en la intensa rutina solo para oir tu hermosa, sutilmente rasgada voz ❤
You are a Diamond 💎
Love your music,✌🏽♥️🇦🇺
I'm right here with you. Awesome song.
Love your voice and music 💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚🇧🇷😍😍
