Miz Collins weep Miz Collins mourn
What made her son Louis leave his home
Angels laid him away. (I said)
Angels laid him away
They laid him six feet under the clay
Angels laid him away
Oh, kind friends now ain't it hard
To see poor Louis in a new graveyard
Where angels laid him away.
When they heard that Louis was dead
All the women folk dressed in red,
'Cos angels have laid him away.
Bob shot one and Louis shot two
Shot poor Collins, shot him through and through -
Now angels have laid him away.
