When the Saints go marching in

Musical intro...

Oh, when the Saints go marching in
Oh, when the Saints go marching in
I want to be in that number
When the Saints go marching in

Oh, when the Saints go marching in
Oh, when the Saints go marching in
I still, want to be in that number
When the sun refuses to shine

Oh, when the Saints go marching in
Oh, when the Saints go marching in
I'm going to sing aloud and thunder
Oh, when the Saints go marching in

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

Oh, when the Saints go marching in
Oh, when the Saints go marching in
I still want to be in that number
When the Saints go marching in.
