Johnny Is Gone For A Soldier Lyrics

Here I sit on Butternut Hill
Who would blame me cry my fill
Every tear would turn a mill
Johnny is gone for a soldier

Chorus:
Shule shule, shule agrah
His nets and creel are laid away
Till he comes back I’ll rue the day
Johnny is gone for a soldier

With fife’s and drums he marched away War dost came he couldn’t stay
Till he comes back I’ll rue the day
Johnny's gone for a soldier

Chorus

I’ll sell my ruck, I’ll sell me reel
I’ll even sell my spinning wheel
Buy my love a coat of steel
Johnny's gone for a soldier

Chorus
