Long Black Limousine Songtext
von O.C. Smith

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 knew you in the city
And now they′ve finally brought you home to me


Now when you left, you told me
Someday you'd be returned
In a fancy car for all of town to see
Now everyone is watching you
You finally got your dream
And you're riding in a long black limousine

You know the papers told of how you lost your life
Oh, the party and the fatal crash that night
The race up on the highway, the curve you didn′t see
Oh, and now you′re in that long black limousine
(You're riding in a long black limousine)

Oh, through tear-filled eyes, I watch as you ride by
Oh, a chauffeur, a chauffeur at the wheel dressed up so fine
I′ll never love another
And my heart and all my dreams
Are with you in that long black limousine


Oh, listen, you know my life
Is with you in that limousine
