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 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 screaming 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 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 were people standing all around
Something warm going 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'd 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 got to be good, so I can see my baby when I leave this world
Ooo-o-o-o-oooh, ooo-o-o-o-o-o-oh
Ooo-o-o-o-oooh, ooo-o-o-o-o-o-oh
Ooo-o-o-o-oooh, ooo-o-o-o-o-o-oh
Ooo-o-o-o-oooh, ooo-o-o-o-o-o-oh
