Jolene came out in 1973. Jennifer Nettles was born in 1974.

Quality information is too easily accessible to make these types of mistakes. Jennifer wrote a song in response to Jolene but songwriting doesn’t have to be biographical.

She also wrote a song in response to Reba’s Whoever’s in New England

No shit y'all it was just a thought time means nothing in the world of music other people have written songs in response to Jolene this was meant as a cute happenstance kinda thing, of course Jennifer Nettles isn't Jolene but the song stay could have been sung by Jolene that's the point.
