I had a heck of a time gettin' into my house today
There was a big $$# U-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...


[Chorus]
Hank don't fail me now
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... 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

(I don't think so)
So...


[Repeat Chorus 2x]

She's walkin' out

Hank don't fail me now
She's walkin' out
Hank don't fail me now
