I had a heck of a time gettin' into my house today
There was a big ass you-Haul trailer in my way
And she was headed for the car so I grabbed my old guitar
I got one more chance before she drives away
So Hank don't fail me now, 'cause you've always bailed me out
'Your cheatin' heart' could set that suitcase down
Give me one more song to whine that'll make her change her mind
'Cause she's walkin' out, Hank don't fail me now
Yeah, she was throwin' stuff and cussin' like a sailor at me
She was waving her arms around like she was fightin' bees
If I could yodel her a lick that just might do the trick
If I sang, "I saw the light" would she believe?
So Hank don't fail me now, 'cause you've always bailed me out
'Your cheatin' heart' could set that suitcase down
Give me one more song to whine that'll make her change her mind
'Cause she's walkin' out, Hank don't fail me now
Hank don't fail me now, 'cause you've always bailed me out
'Your cheatin' heart' could set that suitcase down
Just give me one more song to whine that'll make her change her mind
'Cause she's walkin' out, Hank don't fail me now
She's walkin' out
Hank don't fail me now
She's walkin' out
Hank don't fail me now
