little boys had two little toys,
Gaily they played each summer's day,
One little chap then had a mishap,
he broke off his horse's head
Wept for his toy, then cried with joy
as his young playmate said
when there's room on my horse for two
I can go just as fast with two
And our horses will not be toys
And I wonder if we'll remember
bravely they marched away
Up goes a shout, a horse dashes out,
out from the ranks so blue
He gallops away to where Joe lay,
then came a voice he knew.
Did you think I would leave
There's room on my horse for two.
Climb up here, Joe, we'll soon be flying
I can go just as fast with two
Did you say, I'm all a -tremble?
Perhaps it's the battle's noise
But I think it's that I remember
When we were two little boys
Do you think I would leave you dying?
Climb up here, Joe, we'll soon be flying
Back to the ranch so blue
Can you feel, Joe, I'm all a -tremble?
Perhaps it's the battle's north
But I think it's that I remember
When we were two little boys
