'''"One More Last Chance"''' is a [[single (music)|single]] by [[United States|American]] country music singer [[Vince Gill]] that reached the top of the ''[[Billboard (magazine)|Billboard]]'' [[Hot Country Songs|Hot Country Singles & Tracks]] (now [[Hot Country Songs]]) chart. It was the fourth single released from his CD, ''[[I Still Believe in You]]''.
The music video was directed by [[John Lloyd Miller]] and premiered in mid-1993. In it, Gill, Belmont men's head basketball coach [[Rick Byrd]], and various band members are seen playing a round of golf at a golf course, with Gill having ridden a [[John Deere]] tractor to the course. The video features a cameo by [[George Jones]], who appears at the end of the video riding a John Deere [[riding mower]] to the golf course. The appearance echoes earlier incidents in Jones's life where he would ride his lawnmowers to go on beer runs because his wives would not let him drive a car.

The song is about a man who is about to be run off by his wife for his drinking ways. He asks for "one more last chance before you say we're through." Perhaps the most famous line of the song, "She might have took my car keys, but she forgot about my old [[John Deere]]" is a reference to country music legend [[George Jones]] who famously drove to the liquor store and to a bar to meet his buddies on a riding lawn mower after wife [[Tammy Wynette]] took his car keys in an effort to keep the notoriously hard-drinking Jones from getting his hands on alcohol<ref>[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/George_Jones Wikipedia: George Jones]</ref>.
