Paddy Goes To Holyhead: "Johnny Went To The War" Lyrics

Theyll send him to the war-inspector

Ill be back tomorrow said he

when I will return again

well go to Mexico

they sent you to the war-inspector

I have missed you Johnny said she

great to know you by my side

Ill never let you go

Theyll send him to the regiment

Ill be back tomorrow said he

when I will return again

well got to Mexico

they sent you to the regiment

I have missed you Johnny said she

great to know you by my side

Ill never let you go

Theyll send him to the battlefield

Ill be back tomorrow said he

when I will return again

youll never let me go

they sent you to the battlefield

I have missed you Johnny said she

great to know you by my side

in your graveyard down below

In the name of freedom

where murdering cannons roar

excellent diversion

Johnny-boy went to the war
