Don't worry. Everything's fine at Harry's house...
I thought this might be a fun one. Themes include: you done me wrong for the last time, I can't believe you don't love me anymore, I ain't gonna take it no more, I found my clothes on the lawn, etc.
Basically anything that might make the soundtrack for a divorce party.
This is the one that gave me the idea:
George Thorogood & The Destroyers - You Talk Too Much (30th Anniversary Tour - 2005) - YouTube
A more recent hit:
Sugar land-Stay CMA awards november 7, 2007 - YouTube
My favorite, is from an early 80's soul singer and gives two sides to the story. It starts off with the husband crooning about his love for his mistress.

Always on my mind
Girl, you’re always, always, always, always on my mind
But she’s got these papers on me
And she won’t set me free
I never should have kept the game
But I found out about you too late
What am I gonna do about that, baby
Oh, yeah, yeah, babe...
About halfway through, the wife takes over the song:Girl, you’re always, always, always, always on my mind
But she’s got these papers on me
And she won’t set me free
I never should have kept the game
But I found out about you too late

Well, well, well, what have we here
I know you thought I was all the way on my job by now
Well, I forgot my sweater and I’m on my way back
And I started to thinkin’
You sure been actin’ strange lately
And what is this I hear when I walk up to my bathroom door
You singin’ ‘bout some other woman
Let me tell you somethin’, Mr. Look So Good
From now on this house is where you used to live...
