Lyrics
Fifteen dollars is my game, fifteen is my draw
Randall Collins is my name, down in Arkansas
Rolling dice at the railroad yard won't get you too much scratch
Working on that section gang will surely break your back
Just hiding out by the water tanks, where the shade is good
Watching that straw boss hunt for me, ain't nobody's fool
They're making up a train in the Memphis yard, the longest I ever saw
Going to ride it down to Fairbanks, down in ArkansasDemo Videos

About This Song
Randall Collins is a traditional murder ballad that's occasionally heard at bluegrass jams. The minor key gives it a dark, haunting quality that sets it apart from the typical bluegrass repertoire.
