[G]Oh,[D]
[G]Johnny Rep and Billy Yan[C]k,
[G]don't you wish that [D]you were fishin'
[G]Some for north, [C]some for south,
[G]back in your [D]old hometown
[G]Old Virginia is you[D]r hom[G]e, Johnny Rep
And your home is old
New England, [Am]Billy [D]Yank
From the [G]south and from the [C]north
You [Am]will meet as you go forth
[D]Just two kids who went
and joined the private [G]ranks
[D]Oh Joh[G]nny Rep and Bil[C]ly Yank
[G]Don't you wish that [D]you were fishin'
[G]somewhere were north,
[C]some were south,
[G]back in your [D]old homet[G]own.[D][G]
Over meadows, swamps,
and woods they [C]would [G]go,
Till one day they [D]met beside a [Am]river deep.
[D]They were tir[G]ed and they wer[C]e hot,
[G]and before [Am]they fired a [D]shot,
They both [G]fell into [D]a hole
and fell asleep[G].
Oh, Johnny Reb and [C]Billy Yank,
[G]don't you [D]wish that you were fishin'
[G]Some were north, [C]some were south,
[G]back in your [D]old homet[G]own
Time and time again
they met [C]sure as [G]day
As they'd rush each other
they [D]would [Am]wink and smile
[D]Then those [G]friendly enemies
[C]raise their [Am]rifles if [A]you please
[D]And they fir[G]e and miss
each [D]other by a [G]mile
Oh, Johnny Rip and [C]Billy Yank
[G]Don't you wish that [D]you were fishin'
[G]somewhere north, [C]somewhere south
[G]Back in your [D]old homet[G]own
Tell me, Billy,
have you had your first shave?
Have you ever felt some stubble
on [A]your [D]chin?
Something's [G]growing on my [C]lip,
only [Am]one, but it's a pip.
[D]So I gue[G]ss my sha[D]vin'
days will soon be[G]gin.
Oh, Jolly Rep and [C]Billy Yank,
[G]don't you wish that [D]you were fishin'
Some[G]where north, [C]somewhere south,
[G]back in your [D]old [Am]hometown.
