Lyrics for English Civil War by The Clash
Songwriters: Mellor, John (Arr); Jones, Mick (Arr)
When Johnny comes marchin' home again, hurrah, tala
You face was blue in the light of the screen
But who hid a radio under the stairs?
Alright, Johnny
The new party army came marchin' right over our heads
It was still at the stage of clubs and fists, hurrah, tala
And the shadow keeps fallin' when Johnny comes marchin' home
When that well-known face got beaten to bits, hurrah, tala
But you gotta know it’s shinnin' thought a crack in the cloud
All the towns go
To see his face so beaten in fear
[Incomprehensible]
Okay, Johnny
Nobody understands it can happen again, hurrah, tala
Ha, ha, I told you so, hurrah, tala
And it was just ‘round the corner in the English civil war
Oh oh oh
As watched the speech of an animal scream
Says, "Everybody that we know, hurrah, tala"
A woman’s eye will shed a tear
The new party army was marchin' right over our heads, all right
Who got caught out unawares?
The sun is shinnin' and the kids are shoutin' loud
