There's a long line of mourners driving down our street
|
Their fancy cars are such a sight to see
|
They're all of your rich friends that you knew in the city
|
And now they finally brought you on to me
|
When you left home you told me someday you'd be returning
|
In a fancy car for all the town to see
|
Now everyone is watching I guess you 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
|
[ organ ]
|
Through tear dimmed eyes I watch as you ride by
|
With a chauffer at the wheel dressed up so fine
|
I'll never love another for my heart and all my dreams
|
Are with you in that long black limousine
|
