SONG NOTES

She’ll Be Coming ‘Round the Mountain is an American folksong. The melody of this song was taken from the African American spiritual When the Chariot Comes. The version that we know today was popularized by railroad workers in the late 19th century.

There are many different verses that you can include in this song. Some of our favorites are:

She’ll be driving six white horses when she comes…

Oh, we’ll all go out to meet her when she comes…

She’ll be wearing red pajamas when she comes…

We’ll all have chicken and dumplings when she comes…
