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 peel 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.
