When Johnny Comes Marching Home

  • 2 months ago
A new rendition to a very old War song. The Civil War in America was a sad and bloody affair costing untold lives. Dedicated to both sides. The North and the South. Presented with a haunting female vocal.

Lyrics:
When Johnny comes marching home again Hurrah hurrah
We'll give him a hearty welcome then Hurrah hurrah
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

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

When Johnny comes marching home again Hurrah hurrah
We'll give him a hearty welcome then, Hurrah hurrah
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

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

When Johnny comes marching home again Hurrah hurrah
We'll give him a hearty welcome then, Hurrah hurrah
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

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
