Oh, where oh where can my baby be? |
|
The Lord took her away from me |
|
She's gone to heaven, so I got to be good |
|
So I can see my baby when I leave this world. |
|
We were out on a date in my daddy's car |
|
We hadn't driven very far |
|
There in the road, up straight ahead |
|
A car was stalled, the engine was dead |
|
I couldn't stop, so I swerved to the right |
|
I'll never forget the sound that night |
|
The screamin' tires, the bustin' glass |
|
The painful scream that I heard last. |
|
Oh, where oh where can my baby be? |
|
The Lord took her away from me |
|
She's gone to heaven, so I got to be good |
|
So I can see my baby when I leave this world. |
|
When I woke up, the rain was pourin' down |
|
There were people standing all around |
|
Something warm rollin' through my eyes |
|
But somehow I found my baby that night |
|
I lifted her head, she looked at me and said |
|
"Hold me darling just a little while." |
|
I held her close, I kissed her our last kiss |
|
I found the love that I knew I would miss |
|
But now she's gone, even though I hold her tight |
|
I lost my love, my life that night. |
|
Oh, where oh where can my baby be? |
|
The Lord took her away from me |
|
She's gone to heaven, so I got to be good |
|
So I can see my baby when I leave this world. |
