Hank Williams Lyrics

"I Won't Be Home No More" lyrics


Written and recorded by Hank Williams (Sr.)

Capo on 1st Fret.
[D] Well, you're just in time to be too late
I tried to but I couldn't wait
And [A] now I 've got another date
So I won't be home no [D] more
You're just in time to miss the boat
So don't take off your hat and coat
[A] Be on your way, that's all she wrote
'Cause I won't be home no [D] more.

1st Bridge

I [G] stood around a month or two
And waited for your call
Now [D] I 'm too busy pitchin' woo
So come around next [A] fall
I [D] scratched your name right off my slate
And hung a sign on my front gate
You're [A] just in time to be too late
And I won't be home no [D] more.

Well, you're just in time to turn around
And drive your buggy back to town
You looked me up I turned you down
And I won't be home no more
You're just in time to change your tune
Go tell your troubles to the moon
And call around next May or June
'Cause I won't be home no more.

2nd Bridge

I used to be the patient kind
Believed each alibi
But that's all done, I 've changed my mind
I 've got new fish to fry
Well, you're just in time to celebrate
The things you didn't calculate
You're just in time to be too late
And I won't be home no more.
