Oh, when the saints, go marching in
Yes when the saints go marching in
Oh Lord I want to be in that ever lovin' number
When the saints go marching in

Oh, when the saints, go marching in
Yes when the saints go marching in
Oh Lord I want to be in that number
When the saints go marching in

Oh yes, I had a dear old mother
And if you should see her before I do
Won't you tell her that you saw me coming
I was struttin' straight on through

Oh, when the saints, go marching in
Yes when the saints go marching in
Oh Lord I want to be in that number
When the saints go marching in
