Civil War Song Lyrics

Shel Silverstein Civil War Song

One brother wore blue
One brother wore gray
One brother went
One brother stayed
One brother's here
One brother's there
Oh, where shall I fight
Oh, what shall I wear?
I'm gonna wear my tight blue pants
And my gray sport jacket
And stay at home with the girls
Now, now, now
I don't want to get to Gettysburg
No, no, no, no
I got a protest sign
And a bottle of wine
And my baby and I are gonna
Go, go, go, go
Now, Grant and Lee
Don't mean nothin' to me
And fightin's nothin' but a bore
I'll wear my tight blue pants
And my gray sport jacket
And to hell with the Civil War
