Merle Haggard - Long Black Limousine lyrics

[Verse 1] 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 back to me The papers told of how you lost your life Of the party and that fatal crash that night The race on the highway the curve nobody seen [Chorus] Now you're riding in that long black limousine [Verse 2] When you left home you told me that someday you'd be returning With a fancy car for a whole town to see Well now everybody's watching now and i guess you finally got your dream [Chorus] You're riding in one of them long black limousines [Verse 3] Through tears i watch as you ride by With a chauffeur at the wheel dressed up so fine I'll never love another for my heart and all my dreams [Chorus] Ride with you in that long black limousine...
