4 O'Clock in the morning

When the ambulance arrived

4 O'Clock in the morning

When the ambulance arrived

The blue lights were flashing

As they lay my baby down inside



They took her to the hospital

In the darkest hour of the night

They took her to the hospital

In the darkest hour of the night

It was silent as the grave

As my baby lay beneath the light



They turned on the gas and cut her open

She didn't feel no pain

They turned on the gas and cut her open

She didn't feel no more pain

Daylight was breaking

And down came the rain



Down came the rain

Down came the rain

Down came the rain

Down came the rain
