Intro

                   
Miz Collins weep Miz Collins mourn
                        
What made her son Louis leave his home
              
Angels laid him away. (I said)

Chorus:
               
Angels laid him away
                         
They laid him six feet under the clay
              
Angels laid him away

Chorus

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.

Chorus

Bob shot one and Louis shot two
Shot poor Collins, shot him through and through -
Now angels have laid him away.

Chorus
