The Carroll County Accident - Porter Wagoner[00:00:00]
Carroll County's pointed out as kinda square[00:00:11]
The biggest thing that happens is the county fair[00:00:16]
I guess that's why it seemes like such a big event[00:00:21]
What we all call the Carroll County accident[00:00:27]
The wreck was on the highway just inside the line[00:00:32]
Walter browning lost his life and for a time[00:00:37]
It seemed that Mary Ellen Jones would surely die[00:00:42]
But she lived long enough for her to testify[00:00:48]
Now walter browning was a happy married man[00:00:53]
And he wore a golden wedding ring upon his hand[00:00:58]
But it was gone nobody knew just where it went[00:01:04]
He lost it in the Carroll County accident[00:01:09]
Mary Ellen testified he flagged her down[00:01:14]
Said he was sick and could she drive him into town[00:01:19]
And no one even doubted what she said was true[00:01:24]
Cause she was well respected in the county too[00:01:30]
I went down to see the wreck like all the rest[00:01:35]
The bloody seats the broken glass the tangled mess[00:01:41]
But I found something no one else had even seen[00:01:46]
Behind the dash in Mary's crumpled up machine[00:01:51]
A little matchbox circled by a rubber band[00:01:59]
And inside the ring from walter browning's hand[00:02:05]
It took a while to figure out just what it meant[00:02:10]
The truth about the Carroll County accident[00:02:15]
By dark of night I dropped the ring into a well[00:02:20]
And took a sacred oath that I would never tell[00:02:26]
The truth about the Carroll County accident[00:02:31]
Cause the county ordered dead a marble monument[00:02:36]
I lost him in the Carroll County accident[00:02:42]
