[Verse]
GLast night I saw an accident on the co Crner of the Third and Gr Geen
Two cars collided and I got excited
J A7ust being part of that sc D7ene
It was M Grs. Tom Walker and her beautiful daughter
Pa G7mela was driving the c Car
They got hit by a man in a li Gght blue sedan
Who had ob Dviously been to a b Gar
[Chorus]
They d Con't know how lucky they a Gre
They co Culd have ran into that t D7ree
Got st Gruck by a bolt of lig Chtning
And rap Ged by a m D7inor Gity
[Verse]
GIt was a four-way stop dilemma. We a Cll arrived the same t Gime
I yielded to the man to the right of me
And he yie A7lded it right back to m D7ine
Well, the yi Geld when around and around and around
Till Pa G7mela finally tr Cied
Just then the man in the li Gght blue sedan
Hit P Damela's passenger si Gde
