Johnny, I Hardly Knew Ya Lyrics - Dropkick Murphys

When on the road to sweet Athy, 

Hurroo Hurroo 

When on the road to sweet Athy, 

Hurroo Hurroo 

When on the road to sweet Athy 

A stick in the hand, a drop in the eye 

A doleful damsel I heard cry 

"Johnny, I hardly knew ya" 

 

Where are the eyes that looked so mild, 

Hurroo Hurroo 

Where are the eyes that looked so mild, 

Hurroo Hurroo 

Where are the eyes that looked so mild 

When my poor heart you first beguiled 

Why did ya run from me and the child 

Johnny, I hardly knew ya 

 

We had guns and drums and drums and guns, 

Hurroo Hurroo 

We had guns and drums and drums and guns, 

Hurroo Hurroo 

We had guns and drums and drums and guns 

The enemy never slew ya 

Johnny, I hardly knew ya 

 

Where are the legs with which you run, 

Hurroo Hurroo 

Where are the legs with which you run, 

Hurroo Hurroo 

Where are the legs with which you run, 

When first you went to carry a gun 

Indeed your dancing days are done 

Johnny, I hardly knew ya 

 

We had guns and drums and drums and guns, 

Hurroo Hurroo 

We had guns and drums and drums and guns, 

Hurroo Hurroo 

We had guns and drums and drums and guns 

The enemy never slew ya 

Johnny, I hardly knew ya 

 

You hadn't an arm, you hadn't a leg, 

Hurroo Hurroo 

You hadn't an arm, you hadn't a leg, 

Hurroo Hurroo 

You hadn't an arm, you hadn't a leg 

You're a spinless, boneless, chickenless egg 

You'll have to be put with the bowl to beg 

Johnny, I hardly knew ya 

 

We had guns and drums and drums and guns, 

Hurroo Hurroo 

We had guns and drums and drums and guns, 

Hurroo Hurroo 

We had guns and drums and drums and guns 

The enemy never slew ya 

Johnny, I hardly knew ya 

 

I'm happy for to see ya home, 

Hurroo Hurroo 

I'm happy for to see ya home, 

Hurroo Hurroo 

I'm happy for to see ya home 

From the isle of Ceylon 

Johnny, I hardly knew ya 

 

We had guns and drums and drums and guns, 

Hurroo Hurroo 

We had guns and drums and drums and guns, 

Hurroo Hurroo 

We had guns and drums and drums and guns 

The enemy never slew ya 

Johnny, I hardly knew ya
