The Ballad of Floyd Collins
[JEWELL]
Deep in the land of the hollows an' creeks
If'n you git lost you git lost fer weeks
Listen to the tale of a man who got lost
A hundred feet under the winter frost

[JEWELL & NELLIE]
Now Floyd was a reasonin' man;
He knew what he wanted an' he had a plan
He was jes' as smart as he was brave;
He was gonna find him the perfect cave

[NELLIE, MISS JANE & HOMER]
Even Floyd knew somethin' wasn't right
He was suff'rin' nightmares at night

[COMPANY]
But he didn't worry 'bout what he dreamed;
Things was goin' good or so it seemed
Went lookin' fer his fortune under the ground...

[MILLER]
Sure enough his fortune is what he found
