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, straight ahead ...The 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 screaming 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 going 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.
