Johnny I Hardly Knew You Lyrics

Wi' yer drums and guns and guns and drums, Haroo, Haroo
Wi' yer drums and guns and guns and drums, Haroo, Haroo
Wi' yer drums and guns and guns and drums the enemy nearly slew you
Oh darling dear you look so queer, Johnny I hardly knew yeh

Where are your legs that used to run haroo, haroo
Where are your legs that used to run haroo, haroo
Where are your legs that used to run
When first you went to carry a gun
I fear your dancing days are done
Johnny I hardly knew yeh!

Ye haven't an arm and you haven't a leg haroo, haroo
Ye haven't an arm and you haven't a leg haroo, haroo
Ye haven't an arm and you haven't a leg you're an eyeless, boneless, chickenless egg
Ye'll have to be put wt' a bowl to beg
Johnny I hardly knew yeh!

Wi' yer drums and guns and guns and drums, Haroo, Haroo
Wi' yer drums and guns and guns and drums, Haroo, Haroo
Wi' yer drums and guns and guns and drums the enemy nearly slew you
Oh darling dear you look so queer, ach... Johnny I hardly knew yeh


Tis glad i am to see you home haroo, haroo
Tis glad i am to see you home haroo, haroo
Tis glad i am to see you home
All from the island of Sullon, so low in flesh so high in bone
Johnny I hardly knew yeh!
