Carroll County Accident 歌詞
Carroll County Accident - Brendan Dugan
Carroll county's pointed out
As kind of square
The biggest thing
That happens is the county fair
I guess that's why
It seemed like such a big event
What we all called
The carroll county accident
The wreck was on the highway
Just inside the line
Walter browning lost his life
And for a time
It seemed that mary ellen jones
Would surely die
But she lived long
Enough for her to testify
Walter browning
Was a happy married man
He wore a golden wedding
Ring upon his hand
But it was gone nobody knew
Just where it went
He lost it in the carroll county accident
Mary ellen testified
He flagged her down
Said he was sick and could
She drive him into town
No one even doubted
What she said was true
'Cause she was well respected
In the county too
So I went down to see
The wreck like all the rest
The bloody seats the broken glass
The tangled mess
But I found something
No one else had even seen
Behind the dash in mary's
Crumpled up machine
A little matchbox circled
By a rubber band
And inside the ring from walter
Browning's hand
It took a while to figure out
Just what it meant
The truth about
The carroll county accident
By dark of night
I dropped the ring into a well
And took a sacred oath
That I would never tell
The truth about
The carroll county accident
'Cause the county ordered dad
A marble monument
Yes I lost him in the carroll county accident
