She'll Be Coming 'Round the Mountain When She Comes


Rise Up Singing chapter: Play, p.177
D - - - / D - A - / D D7 G - / D A D -

According to R.U.S., a parody of the old camp meeting song "Ship of Zion". Woah. I want to learn that one too. Mostly because that sounds like an awesome name for a ship. "Zion" is one of the most majestic proper nouns in English, really. I mean, in Hebrew.

She'll be coming round the mountain when she comes (toot toot!) (2x)
She'll be coming round the mountain, she'll be coming round the mountain
She'll be coming round the mountain when she comes (toot toot!)

She'll be riding six white horses when she comes (woah back!)...
She'll be wearing pink pyjamas when she comes (scratch scratch!)...
Oh, we'll all go out to meet her when she comes ("Hi babe!")...
Oh, we'll kill the old red rooster when she comes (hack hack!)...
Oh, we'll all have chicken and dumplings when she comes (yum yum!)...
Oh, she'll have to sleep with grandpa when she comes (snore snore!)...
