Drivin’ Nails in My Coffin Songtext
von Asleep at the Wheel

My sweetheart is gone and I′m so lonesome
She said I that she and I were through
I started out drinking for pastime
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 driving nails in my coffin
Lord is driving those nails over you, yeah I go

Come on Floyd
Pound that thing man

Now ever since the day that we parted
I've been so sad and so blue
I'm just driving those nails in my coffin
And worrying, my darling, over you


And I′m just driving nails in my coffin
Every time that I drink a bottle of booze
I′m just driving nails in my coffin
Lord is driving those nails over you

Come on Johnny Gimble
Well alright, well alright

Now you've turned me down, you don′t want me
There's nothing now I can lose
I′m just driving those nails in my coffin
Worrying darling over you

And I'm just driving nails in my coffin
Every time that I drink a bottle of booze
I′m just driving nails in my coffin
Lord is driving those nails over you

Come on little Lucky
Yes swing high

Yeah I'm just driving nails in my coffin
Every time that I drink a bottle of booze
I'm just driving nails in my coffin
Lord is driving those nails over you
Oh, I′m driving those nails over you
