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 goin' 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
