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[00:00:17]

I guess that's why it seems 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[00:00:47]

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[00:01:03]

He lost it in the Carroll County accident[00:01:08]

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

Said he was sick and could she drive him into town[00:01:18]

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

'Cause she was well respected in the county too[00:01:29]

I went down to see the wreck like all the rest[00:01:34]

The bloody seats the broken glass the tangled mess[00:01:40]

But I found something no one else had even seen[00:01:45]

Behind the dash in Mary's crumpled up machine[00:01:50]

A little matchbox circled by a rubber band[00:01:58]

And inside the ring from Walter Browning's hand[00:02:03]

It took a while to figure out just what it meant[00:02:08]

The truth about the Carroll County accident[00:02:13]

By dark of night I dropped the ring into a well[00:02:18]

And took a sacred oath that I would never tell[00:02:24]

The truth about the Carroll County accident[00:02:29]

'Cause the county ordered Dad a marble monument[00:02:34]

I lost him in the Carroll County accident[00:02:39]
