Ramblin' Jack Elliott - Driving Nails In My Coffin lyrics

My sweetheart is gone and I'm so lonely She said that she and I were through I started out a-drinking for a past time Driving nails in my coffin over you I'm driving nails in my coffin Even time I drink a bottle of booze I'm just driving nail in my coffin Driving nails in my coffin over you Now ever since the day that we parted I've been so sad so blue I can't help thinkin' about her And I just can't quit drinkin' that old booze Well you turned me down you don't want me There's nothing more I can do I'll be driving nails in my coffin Worrying' my darlin' over you
