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 up 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 busting 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 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 have 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
