James Pitt-Payne, London UK - 16 Sep 2004

The Wedding Of The Blue And Grey
as sung by
Miss Ethel Levey and Geo. M. Cohen

[Cohen:] Seems that my heart is laden,
[Levey:] Maybe it's filled with joy,
[Cohen:] I love a southern maiden
[Levey:] I love a Yankee boy.
[Cohen:] Used to be something doing,
used to be Blue and Gray,
[Levey:] if they could hear us cooing
what would our Grand Dads say?

[Cohen:] My GrandDaddy was a soldier true,
[Levey:] My GrandDaddy saw the fray;
[Cohen:] My GrandDaddy wore a suit of blue,
[Levey:] My GrandDaddy wore the gray.
[Cohen:] Our GrandDaddies of the North and South,
shook hands one fine day;
[Levey:] So we'll drink to peace
and our GrandDaddies,
[Both:] at the wedding of The Blue and Gray.

[Levey:] I love the town of Norfolk,
[Cohen:] Boston's the town for me,
[Levey:] Grant was a grand old war hawk.
[Cohen:] Hats off to Gen'ral Lee.
[Levey:] There is a tie won't sever.
War clouds have passed for aye.
[Cohen:] Peace we will know for ever.
God Bless the Blue and Gray.

[Cohen:] My GrandDaddy was a soldier true,
[Levey:] My GrandDaddy saw the fray;
[Cohen:] My GrandDaddy wore a suit of blue,
[Levey:] My GrandDaddy wore the gray.
[Cohen:] Our GrandDaddies of the North and South,
shook hands one fine day;
[Levey:] So we'll drink to peace
and our GrandDaddies,
[Both:] at the wedding of The Blue and Gray.
