For those medical students intending to work with the military:

When going the road to sweet Athy, hurroo, hurroo,
When going the road to sweet Athy, hurroo, hurroo,
When goin' the road to sweet Athy
A stick in my hand and a tear in me eye
A doleful damsel I heard cry:
Johnny I hardly knew you.

With your drums and guns and your guns and drums, hurroo, hurroo
With your drums and guns and your guns and drums, hurroo, hurroo
With your drums and guns and your guns and drums
The enemy nearly slew you
Oh darling dear, you look so queer
Johnny I hardly knew you.

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 you skedaddle from me and the child
Johnny, I hardly knew you

Where are the legs with which you run, hurroo, hurroo,
O 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 you.

You haven't an arm, you haven't a leg, hurroo, hurroo
You haven't an arm, you haven't a leg, hurroo, hurroo
Ye haven't an arm, ye haven't a leg
You're an eyeless, noseless, chickenless egg
You'll have to be put in a bowl to beg
Johnny I hardly knew you.
