Dropkick Murphys - Johnny I hardly knew ya



Uploaded by: BrainDeadGhost
Video Description:
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 did 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 from me and the child
Johnny I hardly knew ya
Chorus:
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
Chorus
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 spineless, boneless, chickenless egg
You'll have to be put with the bowl to beg
Johnny I hardly knew ya
Chorus
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
Chorus

I'd like to know your source of that info. As far as I knew the Irish adopted the kilt off us in the last couple of centuries as it is a distinct form of the Celtish identity to which we're both a part of. The only other recorded instance I have read of are from Scottish colonists.

it's too bad they strayed from some of the lyrics used by some more traditional groups like the dubliners...the last line in many traditional versions is "they'll never take our sons again, johnny i'm swearing to you"...the main thrust of this version is fairly ambiguous whereas the other is a very obvious venting of anger against the imperialist forces that were robbing ireland of her sons for their own profit.
