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
Don’t know why i do
