Handsome Johnny

Hey, look yonder, tell me what's that you see
Marching to the fields of concord?
It looks like handsome Johnny with a musket in his hand
Marching to the concord war, hey marching to the concord war

Hey, look yonder, tell me what's that you see
Marching to the fields of Gettysburg?
Looks like handsome Johnny with a flintlock in his hand
Marching to the Gettysburg War, hey marching to the Gettysburg War

Hey, look yonder, tell me what's that you see
Marching to the fields of Dunkirk?
Looks like handsome Johnny with a carbine in his hand
Marching to the Dunkirk War, hey marching to the Dunkirk War
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Hey, look yonder, tell me what's that you see
Marching to the fields of Korea
Looks like handsome Johnny with an M1 in his hand
Marching to the Korean War, hey marching to the Korean War

Hey, it's a long hard road, it's a long hard road
It's a long, hard road, and before we'll be free
And before we'll be free

Hey, look yonder, tell me what you see
Marching to the fields of Vietnam?
It looks like handsome Johnny with an M15
Marching to the Vietnam War, hey, marching to the Vietnam War

Hey, look yonder, tell me what you see
Marching to the fields of Birmingham
Looks like handsome Johnny with his hand rolled in a fist
Marching to the Birmingham War, hey, marching to the Birmingham War

Hey, what's the use of singing this song
Some of you are not even listening
Tell me what it is we've got to do
Wait for our bullets to start whistling
Wait 'til the bombs start balling

Hey, yeah, hey, here comes a hydrogen bomb
And, here comes a guided missile
Here comes a hydrogen bomb
I can almost hear its whistle
I can almost hear its whistle
Yeah, yeah, yeah
