They worked together when
They were young college men
Becoming brothers then
At Narragansett
In close colored cahoots
Waiting on rich white snoots
To buy themselves new suits
At Narragansett
Upstanding colored boys
The white priv'leged employs
To assist with their joys
At Narragansett
Just what they were and who
And all they were to do
Nobody ever knew
At Narragansett
For decades each then went
In any brave event
Following summers spent
At Narragansett
Through strong decades they knew
They both had remained true
To brotherhood, they grew
At Narragansett
