Well, 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 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 crying tires, the busting glass,
The painful scream that I heard last.
Oh where oh where can by 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 pouring down,
There was people standing all around,
Something warm was running in my eyes,
But I found my baby somehow that night.
I raised her head, and then she smiled and said,
"Hold me, darling, for a little while."
I held her close and kissed her our last kiss,
I found her love that knew I had missed.
But now she's gone, even though I hold her tight,
I lost my love, my life that night.
Oh where or 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.
