Long Black Limousine (7-9m) Songtext
von Elvis Presley

There′s a long line of mourners
Driving down our little street
Their fancy cars are such a sight to see, oh yea

They're all your rich friends who knew you in the city
And now they′ve finally brought you
Brought you home to me

When you left you know you told me

That some day you'd be returnin'
In a fancy car, all the town to see, oh yea


Well now everyone is watching you
You finally had your dream, yea

You′re ridin′ in a long black limousine
You know the papers told of how you lost your life, oh yea
The party, the party and the fatal crash that night
Well the race along the highway, oh the curve you didn't see

When you′re riding in that long black limousine
Through tear filled eyes I watch as you pass by oh yea

A chauffeur, a chauffeur at the wheel dressed up so fine

Well I never, I never, never, never
Oh my heart, all my dreams yea, they're with you
In that long black limousine
