Song Lyrics

These are the full lyrics, we only have part of the song recorded:

Two little boys had two little toys
Each had a wooden horse,
Gaily they played each summer's day,
Warriors both of course,
One little chap then had a mishap,
Broke off his horse's head,
Wept for his toy then cried with joy,
As his young playmate said...

Did you think I would leave you crying...

When there's room on my horse for two,
Climb up here Jack and don't be crying...

I can go just as fast with two,
When we grow up we'll both be soldiers...

And our horses will not be toys,
And I wonder if we'll remember,
When we were two little boys...

Long years had passed, war came so fast,
Bravely they marched away,
Cannon roared loud, and in the mad crowd,
Wounded and dying lay,
Up goes a shout, a horse dashes out,
Out from the ranks so blue,
Gallops away to where Joe lay,
Then came a voice he knew...

Did you think I would leave you dying,
When 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 Joe 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...
