Osborne Brothers - Drivin' Nails in My Coffin lyrics

rate me

(Gerald Irby)

My sweetheart has gone and I'm so lonely

She said that she and I were through

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 booze

I'm just drivin' nails in my coffin

Drivin' those nails over you.

--- Instrumental ---

Ever since the day that we've parted

I've been so sad and so blue

I'm always thinking of your love

And I just can't quit drinkin' that old booze.

I'm just drivin' nails in my coffin

Everytime I drink a bottle of booze

I'm just drivin' nails in my coffin

Drivin' those nails over you.

--- Instrumental ---

Now you've turned me down you don't want me

There's nothing now I can lose

I'm just drivin' nails in my coffin

And worryin' my darlin' over you.

I'm just drivin' nails in my coffin

Everytime I drink a bottle of booze

I'm just drivin' nails in my coffin

Drivin' those nails over you.

I keep drivin' those nails over you...
