Lyrics

Do this, do that and don't do this
Change the way you dress
Go here, go there I tell you girl
I must have been a mess

Till you took control
Of every aspect of my life
I thought I had me a girlfriend
What I got was my ex-wife

If I'm not the man you want
You?d best be on your way
Don?t pout, don't cry, don't tell me lies
Just so you can stay

Save that for the next man
If he don't have the guts to say
I'm happy being who I am
Kiss off, have a nice day

Although I'll have to admit
You?re quite a woman
The kind most any man would like to know
Yeah, I'm not all that crazy about you leavin'
Don?t really want to see you go

Aww, but when it comes to naggin'
Being bossy bold and blunt
There?s something about me darlin'
That you'd best know up front

Like my ole granddaddy used to say
That dog wont hunt

Yeah, I know where I?m goin'
Where i've been and who I am
I'll be at your beck n' call
But not at your command

I'll try to keep you satisfied
And not hold back one bit
aww, but if nothin' satisfies you girl
Well, nothin's what you get

And don't threaten me with leavin'
That?s one game I won?t play
Here, let me help you pack your stuff
Let?s get'er done today

Sure I'm gon'a miss you
What more can I say
Except, please return the front door key
Then be on your way

Although I'll have to admit you?re quite a woman
The kind most any man would like to know
And I'm not all that crazy about you leavin'
I don't really want to see you go

Aww, but if naggin' and complainin'
Are part of your game plan
Don?t be throwin' up no Hail Mary
Tryin' to get the upper hand

Just re-adjust your attitude
Drop back ten yards and punt
Cause I done told ya once
That dog wont hunt

Yeah, but I'll have to admit your quite a woman
Where I'll find another like you I don't know
But you can bet, I'll be out there lookin'
So if you?re leavin' hurry up and go

Now if we can reach an understanding
Here and now today
I'd be pleased to have you
If you decide to stay
But if you go back to complainin'
Even one discontented grunt
I'm tellin? you right here and now
That dog ain?t gone hunt

Nope, don't even get him out of the pen

Leave him locked up

And don't feed him my biscuits either
