[Chorus]

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

[Verse 1]

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

[Chorus]

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

[Verse 2]

When I woke up, the rain was pourin' down

There were people standin' all around

Something warm rollin' 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 would miss

Well, now she's gone, even though I hold her tight

I lost my love, my life, that night

[Chorus]

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

[Outro]

Ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh

Ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh

Oh, oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

Oh, oh, hey, oh
