Two brothers on their way,
Two brothers on their way,
Two brothers on their way,
One wore blue and one wore gray..
One wore blue and one wore gray
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 was gentle, one was kind,
One came home one stayed behind,
A cannonball don't pay no mine…
A cannonball don't pay no mine
If you're gentle or if you're kind
It don't think of the folks behind
Or of a beautiful morning...
Two girls waitin' by the railroad track
Two girls waitin' by the railroad track
For their darlings to come back
One wore blue and.. one wore black..
One wore blue and one wore black
Waitin' by the railroad track
For their darlings to come back
All on a beautiful morning..
(Mournin', mournin')
