Don't
Ranch Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

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

First off, I love Brett's utter fear of ducks. Secondly, whoever does the editing for Brett's videos is amazing and they deserve a raise.

Nah, that's a red flag. And why do you talk like you're on reddit?

@daerdevvyl4314

Kargen The "big devilish one" that really scared her wasn't a duck. But it wasn't a devil either, it was a goose. But those things are freakin' aggressive! I'm really surprised the producer was able to scare it off.
