When Johnny Comes Marching Home - Adam Faith

When Johnny comes marching home again

Hurrah!

Hurrah!

We’ll give him a hearty welcome then

Hurrah!

Hurrah!

Oh, the men will cheer the boys will shout

The ladies they will all turn out

And we’ll all feel gay

When Johnny comes marching home

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!

Well, the laurel wreath is ready now

To place upon his loyal brow

And we’ll all feel gay

When Johnny comes marching home

And we’ll all feel gay

When Johnny comes marching home

In eighteen hundred and sixty-one

Hurrah!

Hurrah!

That was when the war begun

Hurrah!

Hurrah!

In eighteen hundred and sixty-two

Both sides were falling to

And we’ll all drink stone wine

When Johnny comes marching home

And we’ll all drink stone wine

When Johnny comes marching home

In eighteen hundred and sixty-three

Hurrah!

Hurrah!

Old Abe, he ended slavery

Hurrah!

Hurrah!

In eighteen hundred and sixty-three

Old Abe, he ended slavery

And we’ll all drink stone wine

When Johnny comes marching home

And we’ll all drink stone wine

When Johnny comes marching home

In eighteen hundred and sixty-four

Hurrah!

Hurrah!

Abe called for five hundred thousand more

Hurrah!

Hurrah!

In eighteen hundred and sixty-five

They talked rebellion--strife;

And we’ll all drink stone wine

When Johnny comes marching home

And we’ll all drink stone wine

When Johnny comes marching home
