The Twins Songtext
Songtext powered by LyricFind
There were two brothers John and James,
And when the town went up in flames,
To save the house of James dashed John,
Then turned, and lo! his own was gone.
And when the great World War began,
To volunteer John promptly ran:
And while he learned live bombs to lob,
James stayed at home and ? sneaked his job.
That didn't seem to worry him;
But oh, it set his brain awhirl
To find that James had ? sneaked his girl!
Time passed. John tried his grief to drown;
To-day James owns one half the town;
His army contracts riches yield;
And John ? Well, _search the Potter's Field._
John came home with a missing limb;
And when the town went up in flames,
To save the house of James dashed John,
Then turned, and lo! his own was gone.
And when the great World War began,
To volunteer John promptly ran:
And while he learned live bombs to lob,
James stayed at home and ? sneaked his job.
That didn't seem to worry him;
But oh, it set his brain awhirl
To find that James had ? sneaked his girl!
Time passed. John tried his grief to drown;
To-day James owns one half the town;
His army contracts riches yield;
And John ? Well, _search the Potter's Field._
