[Verse 1]
When Johnny comes marchin' home again, hurrah, trala
He's comin' by bus or underground, hurrah, trala
A woman's eye will shed a tear
To see his face so beaten in fear
And it was just around the corner in the English Civil War

[Verse 2]
It was still at the stage of clubs and fists, hurrah, trala
When that well known face got beaten to bits, hurrah, trala
Your face was blue in the light of the screen
As watched the speech of an animal scream
New Party army was marchin' right over our heads

[Guitar solo]
All right!

[Verse 3]
Ha, ha, I told you so, trala, hurrah
Says everybody that we know, hurrah, trala
But who hid a radio under the stairs?
Who got caught out unawares?
New Party army came marchin' right up the stairs

[Verse 4]
When Johnny comes marchin' home again, hurrah, trala
Nobody understands it can happen again, hurrah, trala
The sun is shinin' and the kids are shoutin' loud
Ya' got to know it's shinin' through a crack in the cloud
And the shadows keep on fallin', when Johnny comes marchin' home
[Outro]
Hurrah, Johnny
Oh yeah, Johnny
All the girls go oh oh, oh oh
Get his coffin ready cause Johnny is comin' home
