Ernest Tubb And His Texas Troubadours Lyrics

"Drivin' Nails In My Coffin"

My sweetheart is gone and I'm so lonesome
She said that she and I were through
So I started out drinking for past time
Driving nails in my coffin over you

I'm just driving nails in my coffin
Every time I drink a bottle of booze
I'm just driving nails in my coffin
Driving those nails over you

Every since the day that we parted
I've felt so sad and so blue
I'm always worrying about you love
And I just can't quit drinking that old booze

I'm just driving nails in my coffin
Every time I drink a bottle of booze
I'm just driving nails in my coffin
Driving those nails over you
