Now Emlisten, you, drunken driver while here on Amearth you Emdwell
You Amnever know when the Emtime to come when you'll B7have to say fare- Emwell
I Emsaw an accident Amone Emday, would charm the Amhearts of Emman
And Amteach him never to Emdrink and drive with a B7steerin' wheel in his Emhand
This Emawful accident occurred on the twentieth Amday of EmMay
And Amcaused to lovin' Emchildren to B7sleep beneath the Emclay
These Emtwo dear kids walked side by side out on a Amstate high- Emway
Their Amlovin' mother, Emshe had died and their B7father had run a- Emway
They were Emtalking of their loving parents, how sad their Amhearts did Emfeel
When a- Amround the curve came a Emspeedin' car with a B7drunk man at the Emwheel
The Emdriver saw these two dear kids and hooted a Amdrunkard Emsound
?Get Amout of the road, you, Emlittle fools? and the B7car had brought them Emdown
Instrumental
AmEmB7Em
The Emdriver staggered from his car to see what Amhe had Emdone
His Amheart sank with- Emin him when he B7saw his dyin' Emson
EmHe then picked up his little one and carried him Amto his Emcar
Then Amleanin' on the Emrunnin' board, he B7prayed a drunkard's Emprayer
Sayin', Em?Please, oh Lord, forgive me for this awful Amcrime I've Emdone?
His at- Amtention then was Emcalled away to the B7words of his dyin' Emson
Sayin' Em?Take us to our mother, Dad. She sleeps be- Amneath the Emground
It was Amyou and her we was Emtalkin' about when the B7car had knocked us Emdown?
?And Emplease, dear Dad, don't drink no more while drivin' Amon your Emway
But Ammeet us with our Emmother, Dad, in B7heaven some sweet day? Em
