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

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 screaming tires
The busting 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
