There they go by twos and threes.
There they go by twos and threes.
Johnny be lucky, Johnny come home.
Be lucky Johnny, lucky be Johnny.
They go there threes and twos, be lucky Jonny home come.
I wait by the windowsill,
I wait by the windowsill,
Johnny my love, Johnny my life.
My love Johnny, loving Johnny.
By the windowsill I wait, loving Johnny my life.
A cross and a flag,
A cross and a flag,
Johnny my love, Johnny came home.
Loving Johnny, Johnny coming home.
A flag and a cross, for Johnny came home.
