When will you come again, my faithful Johnny?
When will you come again, my faithful Johnny?
When the corn is gathered,  
When the corn is gathered,
when the leaves are withered,
when the leaves are withered,
I will come again, my sweet and bonnie, I will come again.
I will come again, my sweet and bonnie, I will come again.


Then winter's winds will blow, my faithful Johnny,
Then winter's winds will blow, my faithful Johnny,
Though the day be dark with drift,  
Though the day be dark with drift,
that I cannot see the lift,
that I cannot see the lift,
I will come again, my sweet and bonnie, I will come again.
I will come again, my sweet and bonnie, I will come again.


Then will you meet me here, my faithful Johnny?
Then will you meet me here, my faithful Johnny?
Though the night were Hallowe’en,  
Though the night were Hallowe’en,
when the fearful sights are seen
when the fearful sights are seen
I would meet thee here, my sweet and bonnie, I would meet thee here.}}
I would meet thee here, my sweet and bonnie, I would meet thee here.}}

When will you come again, my faithful Johnny?
When the corn is gathered,
when the leaves are withered,
I will come again, my sweet and bonnie, I will come again.

Then winter's winds will blow, my faithful Johnny,
Though the day be dark with drift,
that I cannot see the lift,
I will come again, my sweet and bonnie, I will come again.

Then will you meet me here, my faithful Johnny?
Though the night were Hallowe’en,
when the fearful sights are seen
I would meet thee here, my sweet and bonnie, I would meet thee here.
