Left Me With a Nail to Drive 

By: Jimmy Buffett 

1975 

Well it's the same old story 

Another mobile home broken up 

Well I'm eatin' off of a paper plate 

Drinkin' from a paper cup 



Chorus: 

She caught me with another woman 

I guess I'm lucky to be alive 

Well she stole my car 

And left me a nail to drive 



Chorus: 

She caught me with another woman 

I guess I'm lucky to be alive 

Well she stole my car 

And left me a nail to drive 



Yeah she stole my car 

And left me a nail to drive
