I keep drivin’ them nails

drivin’ them nails right into you

I keep drivin’ them nails

drivin’ them nails

Don’t know why I do



I used to think if I was there

standing with Jesus face to face

I’d be the one to stand up for him

maybe even take his place



I keep drivin’ them nails

drivin’ them nails right into you

I keep drivin’ them nails

drivin’ them nails

Don’t know why I do



I never felt that graceful

I thought that God was keeping score

The more I tried to earn his favor

I’d hit them nails more and more



Why do keep on keep on payin,

On a debt that’s already been paid

I’ve got it made



I keep drivin’ them nails

drivin’ them nails right into you

I keep drivin’ them nails

drivin’ them nails
