But this song, sung to the tune of When Johnnie Comes Marching
Home,
is one of the most powerful you will ever hear:
From "Sing Along With The Republicans" by The
Freedom Toast

When Johnny Comes Rolling Home


When Johnny comes rolling home again, IRAQ, IRAQ!
We know he’ll never roam again, IRAQ, IRAQ!
His legs don’t work, and his shoulder droops.
But that’s OK: we support the troops.
We will all think twice when Johnny comes rolling home.

When our boy comes back broke and bent, IRAQ, IRAQ!
We’ll wonder why he ever went, IRAQ, IRAQ!
Dick Cheney got all his contracts done
And Dubya proved he’s the favorite son
But we’ll all think twice when Johnny comes rolling home.

The White House thinks they did the job IRAQ, IRAQ!
They never heard our Johnny sob, IRAQ, IRAQ!
They never found what they went to find,
And they give no thought to those left behind.
Bush will NOT be there when Johnny comes rolling home.

We wait for Johnny to arrive, IRAQ, IRAQ!
His spirit’s more dead than alive, IRAQ, IRAQ!
He joined up to fight for the U S A,
He never thought he’d get tossed away
And we’ll all wake up when Johnny comes rolling home!
