Lyrics
I am sorry I left you my darlin' But I'll try and make it up to you Cause you're drivin' nails in your coffin Every time you drink a bottle of brew

You can stop drivin' nails in your coffin You don't ever have to drink that old brew You can stop drivin' nails in your coffin Cause my darling I'm comin' back to you

Now I found that I love you my darling And I just can't live without you But if you wouldn't take me back my darling I would start driving nails the same as you

You can stop drivin' nails in your coffin You don't ever have to drink that old brew You can stop drivin' nails in your coffin Cause my darlin' I'm comin' back to you

When I walked out and left you, I never Realized just what you meant to me But since the day that we parted All my life is filled with misery

You can stop drivin' nails in your coffin You don't ever have to drink that old brew You can stop drivin' nails in your coffin Cause my darlin' I'm comin' back to you
