Roy Acuff Wreck on the Highway Lyrics:
Who did you say it was, brother?
Who was it fell by the way?
When whiskey and blood run together,
Did you hear anyone pray?

((I didn't hear nobody pray, dear brother,))
((I didn't hear nobody pray.))
((I heard the crash on the highway,))
((But, I didn't hear nobody pray.))

[Instrumental break.]

When I heard the crash on the highway,
I knew what it was from the start.
I went to the scene of destruction,
And a picture was stamped on my heart.

There was whiskey and blood all together,
Mixed with glass where they lay.

Death played her hand in destruction,
But I didn't hear nobody pray.

((I didn't hear nobody pray, dear brother,))
((I didn't hear nobody pray.))
((I heard the crash on the highway,))
((But, I didn't hear nobody pray.))

[Instrumental break.]

I wish I could change this sad story,
That I am now tellin' you.
But there is no way I can change it,
For somebody's life is now through.

Their soul has been called by the Master,
They died in a crash on the way.
And I heard the groans of the dying,
But, I didn't hear nobody pray.

((I didn't hear nobody pray, dear brother,))
((I didn't hear nobody pray.))
((I heard the crash on the highway,))
((But, I didn't hear nobody pray.))

5 Dobro is a trade name now owned by Gibson Guitar Corporation and used for
a particular design of resonator guitar, often called a Hawiian Guitar. The
name, Dobro, was coined by the Dopyera brothers when they formed the Dobro
Manufacturing Company in 1928. In time Dobro came to mean any resonator
guitar, or specifically one with a single inverted resonator.
