Hank Thompson - How Cold Hearted Can You Get lyrics

HOW COLD HEARTED CAN YOU GET

Writers Hank Thompson, Billy Gray

While you're honky-tonkin' 'round

All you do is run me down

Now we're parted

How cold hearted can you get

You're tellin' all your friends

What a rascal I have been

Now we're parted

How cold hearted can you get

I remember back when I was tall hog at the trough

Now my money's gone and you have really fluffed me off

You're giving me the blame

You ought to hang your head in shame

Now we're parted

How cold hearted can you get

Now gal I can't forget

How you got me deep in debt

Now we're parted

How cold hearted can you get

You said as you slammed the door

I was square as a four by four

Now we're parted

How cold hearted can you get

You called me ev'ry thing you could, from a dummy to a dope

I know that you'd be satisfied if I took strychnine and croaked

When I say that you'll regret

You just puff that cigarette

Now we're parted

How cold hearted can you get

All the lies you've told one me, you'll regret someday

When Saint Peter says, now gal, just go the other way

Now I guess you'll say to him

It was all my fault again

Now we're parted

How cold hearted can you get
