The Twins - Country Joe McDonald

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

John came home with a missing limb;

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
