Here's a close-up:
My sweetheart is gone and I'm so lonesome
She said that she and I were through
I started drinkin for a pastime
Drivin nails in my coffin over you.
I'm just drivin nails in my coffin
Every time I drink a bottle of booze.
I'm just drivin nails in my coffin
Drivin' those nails over you.
Now ever since the day that we parted
I've felt so sad and so blue.
I can't help thinkin about her,
And I just can't quit drinkin' that old booze

'Take yer tongue outta my mouth cuz I'm kissin' you goodbye'

My grandfather had a friend we called "Grandpa Harry." He had an electric mandolin as well, and an amp bigger than he was. Thanks for the illo that reminded me!
