There's a long line of mourners

Coming down our street

Their fancy cars are such a sight to see

They're all of your rich friends

That knew you in the city

And now they finally brought you home to me

The paper told of how you lost your life

Of the party and that fatal crash that night

The race on the highway, the curve no one seen

Now you're riding in that long black limousine

Through tears, I watched as you ride by

With a chauffeur at the wheel, he's dressed so fine
