The song "One More Last Chance" by Vince Gill tells the story of a man who has come home after a night of drinking and finds his wife waiting for him at the front door. She is holding a book in one hand, symbolizing her intellectual side, and a rollin' pin in the other, representing her frustration and possible intentions to physically discipline him. The wife confronts him about his constant drinking and warns him that if he doesn't change his ways, she will have to take drastic measures. Despite her anger, she pleads for one more chance before calling it quits in their relationship. The protagonist acknowledges his shortcomings and admits that he may drive her crazy, but assures her that he is doing his best. He emphasizes that he is not cheating on her and that they are just some good ol' boys who sometimes make noise. In an attempt to keep him from leaving, the wife hides his glasses, knowing that he needs them to see. She attempts to keep him close and demands that he spend time with her, even though his friends invite him to a party at a honky tonk. However, the man finds a way to defy her and regain some independence. His wife may have taken away his car keys, but he remembers his old John Deere tractor and uses it to escape and meet his friends. The song expresses the man's desire for one more chance to prove himself and change his behavior. Though he may have made mistakes, he hopes that his wife will give him another opportunity to make things right before she decides to end their relationship.
