Well, 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
The car stalled, the engine was dead
I couldn't stop so I swerved to the right
I'll never forget the sound that night
The cryin' tires, 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 was people standin' all around
Something warm runnin' in my eyes
But I found my baby somehow that night
I raised her head and then she smiled and said,
"Hold me darlin' for a little while"
I held her close, I kissed her our last kiss
I found a love that I knew I missed
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
Ooh, Ooh, Ooh
Ooh, Ooh, Ooh, Ooh
Ooh, Ooh, Ooh
Ooh, Ooh, Ooh, Ooh
