Two horses were trottin', they pranced and they ran
Each one was commanded by a calvary man
Two horses stood grazin' where their dead riders lay
A Union Mare, a Confederate Grey
They nuzzled each other as they teased and had fun
They bathed in the warm rays of that old southern sun
No more senseless orders for them to obey
They acted like lovers, this mare and this grey
Now these are such sad times that were all livin' in
For k**in' your brother is the mightiest sin
How happy we'd be if we acted the way
Of the Union Mare, the Confederate Grey
Two horses were trottin', they pranced and they ran
Each one was commanded by a calvary man
Two horses stood grazin' where their dead riders lay
A Union Mare, a Confederate Grey
A Union Mare, a Confederate Grey
