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!
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
