George Jones

Please Don't Let That Woman Get Me

Oh, the woman I believed in

Turned up to be deceivin'

She almost beaten my poor old heart to death

Yes, she left my heart forsaken

And every rule she's breakin'

Every word she said was spoke with a lyin' breath.

Throw me in a den full of great big lions

Or take me to the hangin' tree

But please don't let that woman get me

Tie me up on the railroad track

Or drown me in the deepest sea

But please don't let that woman get me.

If I hear that woman a callin'

And I feel my heart a fallin'

I think I'll make me a bomb and light the fuse

If I ever see her a comin'

I'm a gonna take off a runnin'

If I'll slow down it'll be just to cool my shoes.

Well, throw me in a den full of great big lions

Or take me to the hangin' tree

But please don't let that woman get me

Tie me up on the railroad track

Or drown me in the deepest sea

But please don't let that woman get me.

Well, I said, please don't let that woman get me
