Louis Armstrong & His Orchestra When the Saints Go Marching In Lyrics

I: we are trav'ling in the footsteps
of those who've gone before
but we'll all be reunited (but if we stand reunited)
on a new and sunlit shore (then a new world is in store)

v: o when the saints go marching in
when the saints go marching in
o lord i want to be in that number
when the saints go marching in

and when the sun refuse (begins) to shine
and when the sun refuse (begins) to shine
o lord i want to be in that number
when the saints go marching in

when the moon turns red with blood
when the moon turns red with blood
o lord i want to be in that number
when the saints go marching in
on that hallelujah day
on that hallelujah day
o lord i want to be in that number
when the saints go marching in
o when the trumpet sounds the call
o when the trumpet sounds the call
o lord i want to be in that number
when the saints go marching in
b: some say this world of trouble
is the only one we need
but i'm waiting for that morning
when the new world is revealed
(as intro)
v: when the revelation (revolution) comes
when the revelation (revolution) comes
o lord i want to be in that number
when the saints go marching in
when the rich go out and work
when the rich go out and work
o lord i want to be in that number
when the saints go marching in
when the air is pure and clean
when the air is pure and clean
o lord i want to be in that number
when the saints go marching in
when we all have food to eat
when we all have food to eat
o lord i want to be in that number
when the saints go marching in
when our leaders learn to cry
when our leaders learn to cry
o lord i want to be in that number
when the saints go marching in
