Moore Benton, Arkansas November 26, 1960 Reel 381; Item 17 JUST AS THE SUN WEST DOWN Just at the close of the valley Just at the close of day Wounded and weary upon the ground Two dieing soldiers lay. Chorus: One littering bit of thin gray hair, The other a lock of brown. Bidding each other their last farewell Just as the sun went down. A father a mother at home Feeble and old and gray. One with a sweetheart he left in town Happy and young and gay. Chorus:Funding for digitization provided by the Arkansas Humanities Council and the Happy Hollow Foundation
