Oh, i'm drivin' nails in my coffin
Every time i drink a bottle of booze
Oh, i'm drivin' nails in my coffin
Drivin' those nails over you
Well, my sweetheart has gone and i'm so lonely
She said that she and i were through
So i started drinking for past time
Drivin' nails in my coffin over you
Oh, i'm drivin' nails in my coffin
Every time i drink a bottle of booze
Oh, i'm drivin' nails in my coffin
Drivin' those nails over you
Oh, i'm drivin' nails in my coffin
Every time i drink a bottle of booze
Oh, i'm drivin' nails in my coffin
Drivin' those nails over you
Now you've turned me down and you don't want me
There's nothing left now to lose
I'm just drivin' nails in my coffin
And i just can't quit drinking that old booze
Oh, i'm drivin' nails in my coffin
Every time i drink a bottle of booze
Oh, i'm drivin' nails in my coffin
Drivin' those nails over you
Just drivin' those nails over you
