[00:00:00] The Carroll County Accident - Porter Wagoner

[00:00:11] Carroll County's pointed out as kinda square

[00:00:16] The biggest thing that happens is the county fair

[00:00:21] I guess that's why it seemes like such a big event

[00:00:27] What we all call the Carroll County accident

[00:00:32] The wreck was on the highway just inside the line

[00:00:37] Walter browning lost his life and for a time

[00:00:42] It seemed that Mary Ellen Jones would surely die

[00:00:48] But she lived long enough for her to testify

[00:00:53] Now walter browning was a happy married man

[00:00:58] And he wore a golden wedding ring upon his hand

[00:01:04] But it was gone nobody knew just where it went

[00:01:09] He lost it in the Carroll County accident

[00:01:14] Mary Ellen testified he flagged her down

[00:01:19] Said he was sick and could she drive him into town

[00:01:24] And no one even doubted what she said was true

[00:01:30] Cause she was well respected in the county too

[00:01:35] I went down to see the wreck like all the rest

[00:01:41] The bloody seats the broken glass the tangled mess

[00:01:46] But I found something no one else had even seen

[00:01:51] Behind the dash in Mary's crumpled up machine

[00:01:59] A little matchbox circled by a rubber band

[00:02:05] And inside the ring from walter browning's hand

[00:02:10] It took a while to figure out just what it meant

[00:02:15] The truth about the Carroll County accident

[00:02:20] By dark of night I dropped the ring into a well

[00:02:26] And took a sacred oath that I would never tell

[00:02:31] The truth about the Carroll County accident

[00:02:36] Cause the county ordered dead a marble monument

[00:02:42] I lost him in the Carroll County accident
