Lyrics:

[Verse 1]
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

[Verse 2]
One was gentle, and one was kind
One came home, one stayed behind
A cannonball, don't pay no mind
All on a beautiful morning

[Verse 3]
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

[Verse 4]
Two girls waiting by the railroad track
For their darlings to come back
One wore blue, and one wore black
All on a beautiful morning
