Up drove the Hearse, Caddillac
A crowd of people gathered round it all dressed in black
And as they removed her body from the car
Such pain I never knew, did fill my hear

Lord, the only one I've ever loved
The Lord has returned up above
Life will never be the same again
It was the beginning of my end

It happened on a Saturday night
My love and I had just had a silly fight
She got into her car and angrily drove away
Neither of us knew then, that she would never see another day

What have I done Lord to deserve this misery
Life will neve be the same again
It was the beginning of my end

I was a home watching my TV
When the noise of the phone rudely disturbed me
I wasn't too sure at first, just what the doctor meant
When he informed me that there had been an accident

Why, oh why, I heard her mother cry
As I rushe to the scene with the tears in my eyes
Somebody asked, somebody asked who was the next of kin
And oohhhh Lord, it was the beginning of my end
