| Lyrics: | JOHNNY I HARDLY KNEW YE
While goin' the road to sweet Athy, hurroo, hurroo
While
goin' the road to sweet Athy, hurroo, hurroo
While goin' the road to sweet Athy,
A stick
in me hand and a drop in me eye,
A doleful damsel I heard cry,
Johnny I hardly knew
ye.
With your drums and guns and drums and guns, hurroo, hurroo
With your
drums and guns and drums and guns, hurroo, hurroo
With your drums and guns and drums and
guns,
The enemy nearly slew ye
Oh my darling dear, Ye look so queer
Johnny I hardly
knew ye.
Where are your eyes that were so mild, hurroo, hurroo
Where are your eyes
that were so mild, hurroo, hurroo
Where are your eyes that were so mild,
When my heart you
so beguiled
Why did ye run from me and the child
Oh Johnny, I hardly knew
ye
Where are your legs that used to run, hurroo, hurroo
Where are your legs that
used to run, hurroo, hurroo
Where are your legs that used to run,
When you went for to
carry a gun
Indeed your dancing days are done
Oh Johnny, I hardly knew ye
I'm
happy for to see ye home, hurroo, hurroo
I'm happy for to see ye home, hurroo, hurroo
I'm
happy for to see ye home,
All from the island of Sulloon;
So low in flesh, so high in
bone
Oh Johnny I hardly knew ye
Ye haven't an arm, ye haven't a leg, hurroo,
hurroo
Ye haven't an arm, ye haven't a leg, hurroo, hurroo
Ye haven't an arm, ye haven't a
leg,
Ye're an armless, boneless, chickenless egg
Ye'll have to put with a bowl out to
beg
Oh Johnny I hardly knew ye
They're rolling out the guns again, hurroo,
hurroo
They're rolling out the guns again, hurroo, hurroo
They're rolling out the guns
again,
But they never will take our sons again
No they never will take our sons
again
Johnny I'm swearing to ye
Tune: Johnny Comes Marching
