Songtext
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
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 1861, hurrah! Hurrah!
That was when the war begun, hurrah! Hurrah!
In 1862, 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 1863, hurrah! Hurrah!
Old Abe, he ended slavery, hurrah! Hurrah!
In 1863, 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 1864, hurrah! Hurrah!
Abe called for five hundred thousand more, hurrah! Hurrah!
In 1865, 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
