"One More Last Chance" is a single by American country music singer Vince Gill that reached the top of the Billboard Hot Country Singles & Tracks (now Hot Country Songs) chart. It was the fourth single released from his CD, I Still Believe in You.
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[1].
