Poor Ellen Smith, how was she found
Shot through the heart, lyin' cold on the ground
Her clothes were all bloody and strewn all around
And blood marked the spot where poor Ellen was found
Poor Ellen Smith, how was she found
Shot through the heart, lyin' cold on the ground
Men gathered up their rifles and hunted me down
They found me loafin' around all the town
They sent me to prison for twenty long years
Each night I'd see Ellen through my bitter tears
Poor Ellen Smith, how was she found
Shot through the heart, lyin' cold on the ground
I received a letter yesterday and read it today
The flowers on her grave have all withered away
Someday I'll go home and sad when I go
On poor Ellen's grave, pretty flowers I'll sow
Poor Ellen Smith, how was she found
Shot through the heart, lyin' cold on the ground
