Mel Tillis - Carroll County Accident Lyrics

Font:      
Align:    
  • Carroll County's pointed out as kinda square
  • The biggest thing that happens is the county fair
  • I guess that's why it seemes like such a big event
  • What we all call the Carroll County accident
  • The wreck was on the highway just inside the line
  • Walter Browning lost his life and for a while
  • It seemed that Mary Ellen Jones would surely die
  • But she lived long enough for her to testify
  • Now 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
  • And no one even doubted what she said was true
  • Cause she was well respected in the county too
  • 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 dead a marble monument
  • I lost him in the Carroll County accident I lost him in the Carroll County accident
