Well, 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 that 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 cryin' tires, the bustin' glass, The painful scream that I Heard last. Well, 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 that I can see my baby when I leave A-this world. Well, when I woke up, the rain was pourin' down. There were people standing all around. Somethin' warm 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. I kissed her our last kiss. I found the love that I knew I would miss, But now she's gone even though I hold her tight. I lost my love, my life, That night. Well, 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 that I can see my baby when I leave A-this world. Mmm..
