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      (chorus)   Jesse, I won't cut fresh flowers for you   Jesse, I won't make the wine cold for you   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      Chorus      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 heave again because you've come back to me - Oh Jessie!      Jesse, I'll always cut fresh flowers for you   Jesse, I'll always make the wine cold for you   Jesse, I can easily change my mind about you   And put on cologne   And sit by the phone for you      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   Jesse, I'll always make the wine cold for you   Jesse, I will change the sheets for you   Put on cologne   And I will wait by the phone for you - Oh Jesse!
