There's a long line of mourners driving down our little street

Their fancy cars are such a sight to see

They're all of your rich friends who you knew in the city

And now they finally brought you back home to me

When you left me you told me that someday you'd be returnin'

In a big fancy car for our town to see

Well everyone is watching you dear and you finally got your dream

Cause you're ridin' in a long black limousine

The papers told the story of how you lost your life

Of the party you went to and the fatal crash that happened that night

About the race on the highway and that curve you didn't see

And now you're ridin' in a long black limousine

Through my tear dimmed eyes I watch as you ride so slowly by

With a chauffer at the wheel he's dressed so neat and so fine

Oh God I'll never love another cause my heart and my every dreams

Ride with you dear in that long black limousine

Go with you in that long black limousine
