My sweetheart has gone and I'm so lonely
She said that she and I were through
So I started out drinking for past time
Drivin' nails in my coffin over you
I'm just drivin' nails in my coffin
Everytime I drink a bottle of brew
I'm just drivin' nails in my coffin
Lord I'm drivin' those nails over you
guitar
Now ever since the day that she left me
I've been so sad and so blue
I'm always thinking of your love
And I just can't quit drinkin' that old brew
I'm just drivin' nails in my coffin...
fiddle
I'm just drivin' nails in my coffin...
