How Cold Hearted Can You Get Lyrics - Hank Thompson

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 every 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 on 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?
