Now listen here you drunken driver
While here on earth you dwell
Well you never know when the time will come when you have to say farewell
I saw an accident one day
Would charm the hearts of men
And teach him never to drink and drop with the steeringwheel in his hand
This awful accident Occured
On the 20th day of may
That caused 2 loving children to sleep beneath the clay
These 2 dear kids walked side by side
Out on the state highway
Their loving mother she had died and their father had run away
They were talking of their lovin' parents
How sad their hearts did feel
When around the curve came a speeding car with a drunk man at the wheel
The driver saw these 2 dear kids
And hooted a drunkered sound
Get outta the road you little fools and the car had brought them down
The driver staggered from his car
To see what he had done
His heart sank within him when he saw his dying son
He then picked up his little one
And carried him to his car
Then leanin on the runnin board he prayed a drunkerds prayer
Sayin please oh lord forgive me
For this awful crime i've done
His attention then was called away by the words of his dying son
Sayin take us to our mother dad
She sleeps beneath ground
It was you and her we were talking about when the car had knocked us down
So please dear dad don't drink no more
While driving on your way
But meet us with our mother dad in heaven some sweet day.
