When Johnny Comes Marching Home
Verse 1:
When Johnny comes marching home,
With his sword and his gun,
He'll find the girls all crying,
For their sweethearts gone.
Chorus:
And I know, oh I know,
That they'll welcome him dearly,
And each kiss he'll give them,
Will be twice as dear.
Verse 2:
And he'll hear their sweetest laughter,
And they'll dance in the ring,
And they'll sing a song of welcome,
For their Johnny brings.
Chorus:
And I know, oh I know,
That they'll welcome him dearly,
And each kiss he'll give them,
Will be twice as dear.
Bridge:
Oh, I hope that Johnny comes marching home,
With his banner and his song,
And I know that he'll be bringing back,
A new love for me.
Chorus:
And I know, oh I know,
That they'll welcome him dearly,
And each kiss he'll give them,
Will be twice as dear.
