[00:00:00] Carroll County Accident - Brendan Dugan

[00:00:11] Carroll county's pointed out

[00:00:14] As kind of square

[00:00:16] The biggest thing

[00:00:18] That happens is the county fair

[00:00:22] I guess that's why

[00:00:23] It seemed like such a big event

[00:00:27] What we all called

[00:00:28] The carroll county accident

[00:00:32] The wreck was on the highway

[00:00:34] Just inside the line

[00:00:37] Walter browning lost his life

[00:00:40] And for a time

[00:00:42] It seemed that mary ellen jones

[00:00:45] Would surely die

[00:00:47] But she lived long

[00:00:49] Enough for her to testify

[00:00:53] Walter browning

[00:00:54] Was a happy married man

[00:00:58] He wore a golden wedding

[00:01:00] Ring upon his hand

[00:01:03] But it was gone nobody knew

[00:01:06] Just where it went

[00:01:08] He lost it in the carroll county accident

[00:01:14] Mary ellen testified

[00:01:16] He flagged her down

[00:01:19] Said he was sick and could

[00:01:21] She drive him into town

[00:01:24] No one even doubted

[00:01:26] What she said was true

[00:01:29] 'Cause she was well respected

[00:01:31] In the county too

[00:01:34] So I went down to see

[00:01:36] The wreck like all the rest

[00:01:39] The bloody seats the broken glass

[00:01:42] The tangled mess

[00:01:45] But I found something

[00:01:46] No one else had even seen

[00:01:50] Behind the dash in mary's

[00:01:52] Crumpled up machine

[00:01:57] A little matchbox circled

[00:02:00] By a rubber band

[00:02:03] And inside the ring from walter

[00:02:05] Browning's hand

[00:02:08] It took a while to figure out

[00:02:10] Just what it meant

[00:02:13] The truth about

[00:02:14] The carroll county accident

[00:02:18] By dark of night

[00:02:19] I dropped the ring into a well

[00:02:23] And took a sacred oath

[00:02:25] That I would never tell

[00:02:28] The truth about

[00:02:29] The carroll county accident

[00:02:33] 'Cause the county ordered dad

[00:02:36] A marble monument

[00:02:38] Yes I lost him in the carroll county accident
