Comin’ Round The Mountain
Comin' 'Round the Mountain

She'll be comin' round the mountain, charmin' Betsey
She'll be comin' round the mountain, Cora Lee;
Oh, if I never see you any more
Just look at my ring an' think of me
(or, Dear Lord, remember me.)

A rich man lives in a big brick house
A poor man does the same
I live down in the old county jail
Lord, a brick house just the same!

A rich girl drives a big limmerseen
A poor girl does the same;
My girl drives a model T Ford
Lord, she's ridin' just tbe same!
