Louis Collins
Mrs. Collins weeped, Mrs. Collins moaned,
To see her son Louis leave his home,
The angels laid him away.
The angels laid him away,
They laid him six feet under the clay,
The angels laid him away.
Oh, kind friends, oh, ain't it hard
To see poor Louis in a new graveyard?
The angels laid him away.
Oh, Bob shot once and Louis shot too,
Shot poor Collins, shot him through and through,
The angels laid him away.
The angels laid him away,
They laid him six feet under the clay,
The angels laid him away.
Mrs. Collins weeped, Mrs. Collins moaned,
To see her son Louis leave his home,
The angels laid him away.
Angels laid him away,
They laid him six feet under the clay,
The angels laid him away.
When they heard that Louis was dead,
All the people they dressed in red,
The angels laid him away
Angels laid him away,
They laid him six feet under the clay,
The angels laid him away.
