Lyrics

1. She’ll be coming round the mountain when she comes.
She’ll be coming round the mountain when she comes.
She’ll be coming round the mountain,
She’ll be coming round the mountain,
She’ll be coming round the mountain when she comes.

2. She’ll be drivin’ six white horses when she comes (whoa, back; toot, toot)

3. Oh, we’ll all go out to meet her when she comes (hi, babe!; whoa, back; toot, toot)

4. Oh, we’ll have chicken and dumplins when she comes (yum, yum; hi, babe!; whoa, back; toot, toot)

5. She’ll be wearing red pajamas when she comes (scratch, scratch; yum, yum; hi, babe!; whoa, back; toot, toot)
