Johnny is'nt going to come marching home.
A family all alone.
Johnny is'nt going to come marching here, my dear.
A family full of fear.
Today, his family notified.
He's dead, a bullet in the head.
A war that most people ignore.
On it, they close the door.
The towns they are small.
They all know, when off to war, the sons do go.
