Lyrics
(Patrick Sarsfield Gilmore, 1863)
1. When Johnny comes marching home again,
Hurrah, hurrah,
When Johnny comes marching home again,
Hurrah, hurrah,
The men will cheer and the boys will shout,
The ladies, they will all turn out,
And we’ll all feel glad
When Johnny comes marching home!
2. Get ready for the Jubilee,
Hurrah, hurrah,
Get ready for the Jubilee,
Hurrah, hurrah,
Oh the laurel wreath is ready now
To place upon his loyal brow
And we’ll all feel glad
When Johnny comes marching home!
