Lyrics The Rusty Nail - Jackie Greene

The Rusty Nail

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 ain’t 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 ain’t
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 ain’t around
My nerves are scattered and I come unwound
And that nail gonna nail me in the ground
