(Aaron Tippin/Terry Brown)

I hollered "hey hollered, "Hey honey, I'm home" like
Like I do every day at four
But the TV ain't on and the car is gone, she gone
She must be at the storeenter added
Then I spied this piece of paper it
It looked like a list of things to do
But when I got down to number sixenter added
I realized we were through

(One)
The plumber couldn' couldn't make it today, today
(Two)
I've decided that I'm going away
(Three)
The dog's at the vet vet, the hearing is set
Do you see what I'm trying to say say?

(Five)
Don't forget to take out the trash, trash
(Six)
I'm sorry but I'm not coming back
Now youYou can't sugar coat what she really wrote
Ain'tNow ain't that a hell of a note

I just stood there and scratched my head, head
As my chin dropped to the floor
NotBut not even a tear after all these years, years
I expected a little bit moreenter added
I was countin' on grabbin' a good, cold beer
Stretchin' out on the couch
But she went by the numbers and
And I got counted out

(One)
The plumber couldn' couldn't make it today, today
(Two)
I've decided that I'm going away
(Three)
The dog's at the vet vet, the hearing is set
Do you see what I'm trying to say say?

(Five)
Don't forget to take out the trash, trash
(Six)
I'm sorry but I'm not coming back
Now youYou can't sugar coat what she really wrote
Ain'tNow ain't that a hell of a note
Lordy,Ah, ain't that a hell of a note
