Ernest Tubb - Gods of Country - Ernest Tubb

Drivin' Nails In My Coffin

My sweetheart has gone and I'm so lonely
She said that she and I were through
So I started out drinkin' for pastime
Drivin' nails in my coffin over 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
Lordy, drivin' those nails over you

Oh come in, Redd

Oh let's hear from you, Jimmy

Ever since the day that we've parted
I've been so sad and so blue
I'm always thinkin' of 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
Lordy, drivin' those nails over you

Oh, Jim!

Now you've turned me down, you don't want me
There's nothing now I can lose
I'm just drivin' those nails in my coffin
And worryin', my darlin', over 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
Lordy, drivin' those nails over you
