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 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 standing 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
