When Johnny comes marching home again,  Hurrah! Hurrah!  We'll give him a hearty welcome then,  Hurrah! Hurrah!  Oh, 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!  Well, 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  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.
