When Johnny comes marching home again, |
|
Hurrah! Hurrah! |
|
We'll give him a hearty welcome then |
|
Hurrah! Hurrah! |
|
The men will cheer and the boys will shout |
|
The ladies they will all turn out |
|
And we'll all feel gay, |
|
When Johnny comes marching home. |
|
The old church bell will peal with joy |
|
Hurrah! Hurrah! |
|
To welcome home our darling boy |
|
Hurrah! Hurrah! |
|
The village lads and lassies say |
|
With roses they will strew the way, |
|
And we'll all feel gay |
|
When Johnny comes marching home. |
|
Get ready for the Jubilee, |
|
Hurrah! Hurrah! |
|
We'll give the hero three times three, |
|
Hurrah! Hurrah! |
|
The laurel wreath is ready now |
|
To place upon his loyal brow |
|
And we'll all feel gay |
|
When Johnny comes marching home. |
|
Let love and friendship on that day, |
|
Hurrah, hurrah! |
|
Their choicest treasures then display, |
|
Hurrah, hurrah! |
|
And let each one perform some part, |
|
To fill with joy the warrior's heart, |
|
And we'll all feel gay |
|
When Johnny comes marching home |
