Death of Floyd Collins - John Prine/Mac Wiseman[00:00:00]
Oh come all ye young people and listen while I tell [00:00:24]
The fate of floyd collins the lad we all knew well [00:00:29]
His face was fair and handsome [00:00:35]
His heart was true and brave [00:00:37]
His body now lies sleeping in a lonely sandstone cave [00:00:40]
Oh mother don't you worry dear father don't be sad [00:01:14]
I'll tell you all my stroy in an awful dream I had [00:01:19]
I dreamed I was a prisoner my life I could not save [00:01:25]
I cried "oh must I perish within this silent cave [00:01:31]
The rescue party labored [00:02:00]
They worked both night and day [00:02:02]
To move the mighty barrier[00:02:05]
That stood within their way [00:02:08]
To rescue floyd collins it was their battle cry [00:02:11]
"We'll never no we'll never let floyd collins die "[00:02:16]
But on that fateful morning the sun rose in the sky [00:02:25]
The workers still were busy [00:02:30]
"We'll save him by and by "[00:02:33]
But oh how sad the ending his life could not be saved [00:02:36]
His body was then sleeping in the lonely sandstone cave [00:02:41]
Young people all take warning from floyd collin's fate [00:02:50]
And get right with your maker[00:02:56]
Before it is too late [00:02:58]
It may not be a sand cave in[00:03:01]
Which we find our tomb [00:03:04]
But on that day of judgment [00:03:07]
We too must meet our doom[00:03:10]
