Two brothers on their way

Two brothers on their way

Two brothers on their way

One wore blue

And one wore grey



One wore blue and one wore grey

As they marched along the way

A fife and drum began to play

All on a beautiful morning



One was gentle, one was kind

One was gentle, one was kind

One came home, one stayed behind

A cannonball don't pay no mind



A cannonball don't pay no mind

Though you're gentle or you're kind

It don't think of the folks behind

All on a beautiful morning



Two girls waiting by the railroad track

Two girls waiting by the railroad track

For their darlings to come back

One wore blue, and one wore black



One wore blue, and one wore black

Waiting by the railroad track

For their darlings to come back

All on a beautiful morning



One wore blue, and one wore black

Waiting by the railroad track

For their darlings to come back

All on a beautiful morning



All on a beautiful morning
