My sweetheart is gone and I'm so lonesome She said that she and I were through So I started out drinkin' for pasttime Drivin' nails in my you I'm just drivin' nails in my coffin Every time I drink a bottle of booze I'm just drivin' nails in my coffin Drivin' those nails over you {solo} Every since the say that we parted I've felt so sad and so blue I'm always worryin' about you love And I just can't quit drinkin' that old booze I'm just drivin' nails in my coffin Every time I drink a bottle of booze I'm just drivin' nails in my coffin Drivin' those nails over you
