I could never imagine Chris as a carpenter. Maybe Billy though

I knew hit on a nail was an expression, but in case she wrote it mainly for rhyme reasons, I think it's ok. Sometimes authors wrote words that actually does not make complete sense, but the message is understood anyway. As Don Henley say "it's just a song!" when they criticized him because wine is not a spirit. Spirits are distilled beverages, and wine is a fermented.

So I called up the captain
Please bring me my wine, he said
"We haven't had that spirit here since 1969"
