There you are, ha ha, I told you so, Harah! Tralah! Lead 2 x1 Says everybody that we know, Harah! Tralah! But Cwho hid a radio Gunder the stairs, An' Fwho got caught out on their Cunawares' When that Anew Gparty FarEmy came Amarching right up the stairsWhen AJohnny comes marching home again, HaGrah! TraGlah!
NoAbody understands it can happen again, HaEmrah! TraEmlah!
The Csun is shining an' the Gkids are shouting loud,
But you Fgotta know it's shining through a Ccrack in the cloud,
And the Ashadows Gkeep FfallEing when AJohnny comes marching home...
