Mrrzy Songs of the American Civil War (83* d) RE: Songs of the American Civil War 29 Mar 18


Hee hee I must mention that thanks to folk songs, I knew that the side which lost the Civil War wore grey and the side which won wore blue... but as an Embassy brat I did not know which side was the North and which the South. My dad was appalled.

I can think of several songs that mention blue and grey, like Hey Nellie Nellie and All on a beautiful morning, and a couple which are named blue and grey in the title.

I think it's spelled Gray, actually, in the US.
