Folk Bloodbath - song lyrics

Louis Collins took a trip out west
And when he returned little Delia'd gone to rest
The angels laid her away
Louis said to Delia, "That's the sad thing with life"
"People always leaving just as other folks arrive"
The angels laid her away
When the people heard that Delia was dead
All them gentlemen they dressed in red
The angels laid her away

The angels laid her away
Laid her six feet under the clay
The angels laid her away

Louis went downtown for a new suit of clothes
Gonna dress up for Delia like a fine red rose
The angels laid him away
He brought a ten-gallon stetson it was oxblood red
Then Stackalee shot Louis in the back of the head
The angels laid him away
Stackalee said to Louis, "Oh now, don't you grieve"
I'm sending you to Delia you won't ever have to leave"
The angels laid him away

The angels laid him away
Laid him six feet under the clay
The angels laid him away

The judge was a mean one, his name was "Hangin Billy Lyons
He said, "You've always been a bad man, Stack, you're gonna hang this time"
The angels laid him away
And the jailer said to Stackalee, "What's the problem with you?"
"Oh, jailer, Louis Collins ghost brought Delia's with him too"
The angels laid him away

The angels laid him away
Laid him six feet under the clay
The angels laid him away

They buried little Delia in the churchyard deep
Louis Collins at her head, Stackalee at her feet
The angels laid them away
And out of Delia's bed came briars, out of Louis' bed a rose
And out of Stackalee's came Stackalee's cold lonely little ghost
The angels laid them away
And I'm looking over rooftops and I'm hoping that it ain't true
That the same God looked out for them looks out for me and you
The angels laid them away

The Stone-Josh Ritter Change your face Change your name Rip the roots that you layed down Rip the roots that you layed down You'll keep your hurt You'll keep your pain Close company now Close company now Lying wide awake In a different house With different arms around you now On a different street In a different town On the same old road That the night comes down That the night comes down Love'll burn a hole Through your human doubts And free your heart from the stone Free your heart from the stone And the stone may roll But it'll search you out No matter where you go It'll find you Lying wide awake In a different house With different arms around you now On a different street In a different town On the same old road That the night comes down On the same old road That the night comes down That the night comes down

Friends, this is Tex Ritter with a strange story about a soldier boy and A deck of cards: During a North African campaign A bunch of soldier boys had been on a long hike And they arrived in a little town called Cassino The next morning being Sunday several of the boys went to church A sergeant commanded the boys in church And after the chaplain had read the prayer The text was taken up next Those of the boys who had a prayer book took them out But this one boy only had a deck of cards And so he spread them out The Sergeant saw the cards and said "Soldier, put away those cards!" After the services were over The soldier was taken prisoner And brought before the Provost Marshal The Marshal said, "Sergeant, why have you brought this man here?" "For playing cards in church, sir" "And what have you to say for yourself, son?" "Much, sir" replied the soldier The Marshal said, "I hope so, for if not, I shall punish you more than Any man was ever punished" The soldier said, "Sir, I have been on a march for about six days, and I had neither Bible nor Prayer Book, but I hope to satisfy you, Sir, with the purity of my intentions." With that the boy started his story "You see, Sir, when I look at the Ace it reminds me that there is but one God The deuce reminds me that the Bible is divided into two parts; the Old and New Testaments And when I see the très I think of the Father, Son, and Holy Ghost When I see the four I think of the four evangelist who preached the Gospel There was Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John And when I see the five it reminds me of the five wise virgins who trimmed their lamps Ten of 'em; five who were wise and were saved; five were foolish and were shut out And when I see the six it Reminds me that in six days God made this great heaven and earth And when I see the seven it reminds me that on the seventh day God rested from His Great work When I see the eight I think of the eight righeous persons God saved when he destroyed this earth There was Noah, his wife, their three sons, and their wives And when I see the nine I think of the lepers our Savior cleansed, and nine of the ten didn't even thank Him When I see the ten I think of the Ten Commandments God handed down to Moses on a tablet of stone When I see the King it reminds me that there is but one King of Heaven, God Almighty And when I see the queen I think of the Blessed Virgin Mary who is Queen of Heaven And the jack, or knave, is the devil And when I count the number of spots on a deck of cards I find three hundred sixty-five, the number of days in a year Fifty-two cards, the number of weeks in a year Four suits, the number of weeks in a month Twelve picture cards, the number of months in a year Thirteen tricks, the number of weeks in a quarter So you see, Sir, my pack of cards serve me as a Bible, almanac, and prayer book." "Friends, I know this story is true, because I knew that soldier."

I'll sing you a true song of Billy the Kid I'll sing of the desperate deeds that he did Out in New Mexico long time ago When a man's only chance was his own forty-four When Billy the Kid was a very young lad In old Silver City he went to the bad Way out in the West with a gun in his hand At the age of twelve years, he killed his first man Fair Mexican maidens play guitars and sing A song about Billy, their boy bandit king Who ere his young man-hood had reached its sad end Had a notch on his pistol for twenty-one men 'Twas on the same night, when poor Billy died He said to his friends, 'I am not satisfied Twenty-one men I have put bullets through Sheriff Pat Garrett must make twenty-two' Now this is how Billy the Kid met his fate The bright moon was shining, the hour was late Shot down by Pat Garrett, who once was his friend The young outlaw's life had now come to its end There's many a man with a face fine and fair Who starts out in life with a chance to be square But just like poor Billy, he wanders astray And loses his life in the very same way
