Mrs. Collins weeped, Mrs. Collins moaned
To see her son Louis leavin' home
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 leavin' home
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
Oh, kind friends, oh, ain't it hard
To see poor Louis in a new graveyard
The angels laid him away
The angels laid him away
They laid him six feet under the clay
The angels laid him away
Oh, when they heard that Louis was dead
All the people they dressed in red
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 leavin' home
The angels laid him away
The angels laid him away
They laid him six feet under the clay
The angels laid him away
