Johnny, I Hardly Knew Yeh Lyrics

With your guns and drums and drums and guns, hurroo, hurroo
With your guns and drums and drums and guns, hurroo, hurroo
With your guns and drums and drums and guns
The enemy nearly slew ye
My darling dear, ye look so queer
Johnny, I hardly knew ye, hmm, hmm, hmm

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
Before ye left to carry a gun
I fear your dancing days are done
Johnny, I hardly knew ye, hmm, hmm, hmm

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 did beguile
And why did you run from me and the child
Johnny, I hardly knew ye, hmm, hmm, hmm

You haven′t an arm, you haven't a leg, hurroo, hurroo
You haven′t an arm, you haven't a leg, hurroo, hurroo
You haven't an arm, you haven′t a leg
You′re an eyeless, boneless, chickenless egg
And you'll have to be put with a bowl to beg
Johnny, I hardly knew ye, hmm, hmm, hmm

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 won't take back our sons again
No, they′ll never take back our sons again
Johnny, I'm squaring to ye, hmm, hmm, hmm
