Long Black Limousine Lyrics - Wynn Stewart

LONG BLACK LIMOUSINE 

Writers Bobby George and Vern Stovall 

Copyright 1961 

See her ridin' in that long black limousine 

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

And their fancy cars are such a sight to see 

Must be all her rich friends that knew her in the city 

Yes they finally brought her home to me 

All the papers told of how she lost her life 

Bout the party and the fatal crash that night 

The race upon the highway and the curve no one had seen 

Now she's ridin' in that long black limousine 

When she left home she told me that someday she'll be returnin' 

And she'd leave in a fancy car for all the town to see 

And now everyone is watchin' and I guess at last she found her dream 

Cause there she goes she's ridin' in a long black limousine 

Through tear dimmed eyes I watched as she ride by 

With a chauffer at the wheel dressed up so fine 

Oh I'll never love another for my heart and all my dreams 

Are with her in that long black limousine 

See her ridin' in that long black limousine
