Jackie Greene The Rusty Nail song lyrics

I broke my back just for her

I got off track, now that's for sure

I used to give her my money,

I'd tell you no lie

It cost me 20 dollars

every time she'd cry

but I don't care no more

cause she aint mine

and that rusty nail

gave me a thrill

that rusty nail

do me like she never will

well I know there's another man

that she found

cause the only time she's loving

is when I ain't around and

that nail gonna nail me in the ground

sometimes it's raining

sometimes it aint

sometimes I'm changing

sometimes I can't

sometimes im right, sometimes im wrong

most times I feel like I just don't belong

but the whole time I stay here all night long

and that rusty nail

kissed me goodnight

took all my money,

turned out the light

well I had a little girl, but she aint around

my nerves are scattered and I come unwound

and that nail gonna nail me in the ground
