Ghost Of Floyd Collins Lyrics - Folklore & Superstition - Black Stone Cherry

(Yeah boy i sure do. I r'member yonder back yonder n' the 20's. They said that uhh Floyd Collins he'd been caught in that cave, sand cave down there. Once he got down there he couldn't get out so they just left him down there and they had the sermon for him right there. He just laid there and died.) 

The hellhounds walking 

On midnight fire 

The fog rolls in 

And the creek runs higher 

They saw him standing 

By the railroad tracks 

Tonight's the night 

Old Floyd's coming back

Downtown 

Deep in the ground 

It's where his story stays 

Down in mammoth cave 

Is where his body laid 

Walls came in 

Life could not be saved 

No man-made machine 

Could see the things he'd seen 

Mr. Collins, he did not die in vain 

The strangers moved in 

Brought the circus to town 

You know there's 

People making money 

Off the man underground 

Somebody said 

They wouldn't doin him right 

That's why old Floyd's 

Coming back tonight

It's where his story stays

Walls came in 

Life could not be saved 

No man-made machine

Mr. Collins, he did not die in vain

Downtown 

Deep in the ground 

It's where his story's 

So they say 

Down in mammoth cave 

Is where his body laid 

Walls came in 

Life could not be saved 

No man-made machine 

Could see the things he'd seen 

Mr. Collins, he did not die in vain
