Johnny Came Marching Lyrics

Oh oh

When johnny came marchin' home
Tired from all the fighting
All he wanted was his old life back
Far from the thunder and lightening
What he saw made him angry
Filled him up with hate
So he grabbed his guns and ammunition
The rest just sealed their fate

You never know how your day will go
The song you sing the love that you bring
The empty shell...
From the bullet that came straight outta hell

When johnny came marchin' home
(He knew that he was)
Never gonna' be the same
(Ya know ya know that)
Someone has to take the blame
(Just look what he did)
When johnny came marchin' home

When everything you love is gone
Feel empty and alone
The only place you want to be is in the arms of your luvin' son
The pain just turns to anger starts rippin' you apart
But ya know that you just can't become
Another johnny with a loaded gun

You never know how your day will go
The song you sing the love that you bring
The empty shell...
From the bullet that came straight outta hell

When johnny came marchin' home
(He knew that he was)
Never gonna' be the same
(Ya know ya know that)
Someone has to take the blame
(Just look what he did)
When johnny came marchin' home

(Johnny got a gun, johnny got a gun
Everybody run he gonna shoot you down)
Oh ya know he's got a gun
He gonna shoot you down, shoot you down

(Johnny got a gun, johnny got a gun
Everybody run he gonna shoot you down)
He gonna shoot you, shoot you down, shoot you down
Johnny got a gun, johnny got a gun
He gonna shoot you down, shoot you down, shoot you down

When johnny comes marchin' home
When johnny comes marchin' home
