Union Mare and Confederate Grey
Two horses were running, they pranced as they ran
They both been commanded by a cavalry man
Two horses stood grazing where their dead riders lay
The Union mare and the Confederate grey.
They nuzzled each other as they pranced and had fun
They bathed in the warm rays of the old Southern sun
No more senseless orders for them to obey
So they froliced like lovers, this mare and this grey
Now these are such sad times that we're all living in
For killing your brother is the mightiest sin
How happy we'd be if we lived for today
Like the Union mare and the Confederate grey
The Union mare and the Confederate grey
