Where, oh where, can my baby be? the lord took her away from
Me. she's gone to heaven, so I've 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. 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've 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 standin all around.
Something warm flowing 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 had missed.

Well 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've got to be good. so I can see my baby when I leave this
World.
