Текст песни: Johnny I Hardly Knew You + перевод

While going the road to sweet Athy, Haroo, haroo

While going the road to sweet Athy, Haroo, haroo

While going the road to sweet Athy

A stick in my hand a tear in my eye, a doleful damsel I heard cry

Johnny I hardly knew yeh

With drums and guns and guns and drums, Haroo, Haroo

With drums and guns and guns and drums, Haroo, Haroo

With drums and guns and guns and drums the enemy nearly slew you

My darling dear you look so queer, Johnny I hardly knew yeh

Where are the legs with which you run haroo, haroo

Where are the legs with which you run haroo, haroo

Where are the legs with which you run

When you went to shoulder a gun, indeed your dancing days are gone

Johnny I hardly knew yeh!

With drums and guns and guns and drums, Haroo, Haroo

With drums and guns and guns and drums, Haroo, Haroo

With drums and guns and guns and drums the enemy nearly slew you

My darling dear you look so queer, Johnny I hardly knew yeh

You haven’t an arm and you haven’t a leg haroo, haroo

You haven’t an arm and you haven’t a leg haroo, haroo

You haven’t an arm and you haven’t a leg you’re an eyeless, noseless,

chickenless egg

You’ll have to be put in a bowl to beg

Johnny I hardly knew yeh!

With drums and guns and guns and drums, Haroo, Haroo

With drums and guns and guns and drums, Haroo, Haroo

With drums and guns and guns and drums the enemy nearly slew you

My darling dear you look so queer, Johnny I hardly knew yeh

I’m happy for to see you home haroo, haroo

I’m happy for to see you home haroo, haroo

I’m happy for to see you home

All from the island of Sullon, so low in the flesh so high in the bone

Johnny I hardly knew yeh!

With drums and guns and guns and drums, Haroo, Haroo

With drums and guns and guns and drums, Haroo, Haroo

With drums and guns and guns and drums the enemy nearly slew you

My darling dear you look so queer, Johnny I hardly knew yeh

But sad as it is to see you so haroo, haroo

But sad as it is to see you so haroo, haroo

But sad as it is to see you so

And think of you now as an object of woe, your Peggy’ll still keep you on as

her beau;

Johnny I hardly knew yeh!
