Lyrics Two Brothers - Harry Belafonte

Two Brothers on their way

T'was on a pleasant summer's day

On a pleasant summer's day

When they marched along their way

A fife and drum began to play

There on a beautiful morning

One was gentle, one was kind

One came home, one stay behind,

A cannon ball don't pay no mind

If you're gentle or you're kind

It don't think of the folks behind

There 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 wore black

Waiting by the railroad track

For their darlings to come back

There on a beautiful morning
