comin' round the mountain - unknown artist lyrics
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!
from ozark folksongs, randolph
collected from fred painter, mo, 1941
recorded by roy acuff
note: one of very many variations on the theme. sometimes it’s
rich/poor; sometimes black/white/brown; sometimes
sailor/captain/admiral
