The Kingston Trio — When the Saints Go Marching In Stereo Concert version

[Intro] Now, in response to a diminishing number of requests We'd like to bring this song forward It's a song of socio-economical, political, religious significance Sort of designed to offend as few as possible Uh, It's in line with our recent anti-sin campaign So, we invite you (Oh, we got one?) to join in, those of you who have sinned recently Or, or are planning on doing so little later on this evening (Everybody! Mommy) Or are doing so secretly now (Yes. You in the balcony there) I don't, I don't know what the price of admission is But it doesn't cover that, mister You Joe and you, buddy So if you'd like to join in, I think the key is E Or if you're more manually-oriented Perhaps some clapping in 4/4 time would be a boon Because we play anywhere from 2/4 to 7/5 It's gets pretty Raggedy Andy up here, for sure (A mess) Or another way is like you're the kind of person That brings a binocular case to the concert and no binoculars Uh, the thing to do is just keep on doing what you're doing Only sip in 4/4 time, okay? This satisfies all kinds of inner drive and needs and things like that Uh, or if you wanna talk during the number that's fine Because we can have the boys in the back turn up the volume Until it reaches the threshold of pain, uh So shall we go right on into it? (Listen) The old spiritual cathartic, "When the Saints Go (Marching In)" (Watch the drums, the drums too close) (Yes) (Drums too close, drums too close) [Verse 1] Whoa, yeah Hey, we are followin' the footsteps (Oh, oh, oh) Of those who've gone before (Clap, clap, clap, clap, clap, ev'rybody) And we'll all be reunited On that new and sunlit shore (Keep it up) [Chorus] Oh, when the saints (Go marchin' in) Go, marchin' in (Well, when the saints) Oh, when the saints go marchin' in (Oh Lordy, Lordy, Hallelujah) Oh, Lord, I want to be in that number When the saints go marchin' in [Verse 2] Well, when the sun (Oh, when the sun) Refuse to shine (Refuse to shine) Well, when the sun refuse to shine (Oh, Lord) Oh, Lord, I want to be in that number When the sun refuse to shine (Yeah) [Verse 3] And when the trumpet (Oh, when the trumpet) sounds its call (It sounds its call) Oh, when the trumpet sounds its call Oh, Lord, I want to be in that number When the trumpet sounds its call [Verse 4] Some say this world of trouble Is the only world we'll need But I'm waitin' for that mornin' (Get ready) Oh, when the new world is revealed (Hit it!) [Verse 5] Oh, when the new world is revealed Oh, when the new, when the new world is revealed Oh, Lord (Oh Lord), I want to be in that number When the new world is revealed (Here we go!) [Chorus] Yes, when the saints go marchin' in (Go marching in) Well, when the saints go marchin' in (Oh Lordy, Lordy Hallelujah) Oh Lord, I want to be in that number When the saints go marchin' in [Outro] Thank you (Woo!)
