Coming 'Round the Mountain

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

She'll be huffin' and a-puffin'...

Oh, we'll all come out to meet her ...

We will kill the old red rooster...

She'll be wearing pink pajamas...

(plus some bawdy ones)

Everybody asks her, did she come.
Everybody asks her, did she come.
They wouldn't have to mention
If they only paid attention.
Everybody asks her, did she come.

She's got a lovely titillating smile.
She's got a lovely titillating smile.
She's got a lovely titi-,
She's got a lovely titi-,
She's got a lovely titillating smile.

She's got a lovely bottom set of teeth.
She's got a lovely bottom set of teeth.
She's got a lovely bottom.
She's got a lovely bottom.
She's got a lovely bottom set of teeth.


Note: probably originally about a new railroad line; it's a good
 enough zipper-type song to have been preempted by kids and camps, and
 have verses like "pink pajamas" incorporated.
