There's a long line of mourners driving down our little street   Their fancy cars are such a sight to see   They're all of your rich friends that knew you in the city   And now they finally brought you on to me   When you left you told me someday you'd be returnin'   In a fancy car for all the town to see   Now everybody's watching you finally got your dream   You're riding in a long black limousine   The papers told of how you lost your life   The party and the fatal crash that night   The race upon the highway the curve you didn't see   And now you're in that long black limousine   [ steel ]   Through tear dimmed eyes I watch as you ride by   A chauffer at the wheel dressed up so fine   I'll never love another my heart and all my dreams   Are with you in that long black limousine
