two soldiers

• bob dylan şarkısının sözleri şu şekildedir:
  
  he was just a blue-eyed boston boy
  his voice was low with pain
  "i'll do your bidding comrade mine
  if i ride back again
  but if you ride back and i am left
  you'll do as much for me
  mother you know, must hear the news
  so write to her tenderly."
  
  "she's waiting at home like a patient saint
  her fond face pale with woe
  her heart will be broken when i am gone
  i'll see her soon, i know"
  just then the order came to charge
  for an instant hand touched hand
  they said "aye" and away they rode
  that brave and devoted band.
  
  straight was the track to the top of the hill
  the rebels they shot and shelled
  plowed furrows of death through the toilling ranks
  and guarded them as they fell
  there soon came a horrible dying yell
  from heights that they could not gain
  and those whom doom and death had spared
  rode slowly back again.
  
  but among the dead that were left on the hill
  was the boy with the curly hair
  the tall dark man who rode by his side
  lay dead beside him there
  there's no one to write to the blue-eyed girl
  the words that her lover had said
  momma, you know, awaits the news
  and she'll only know he's dead.
