Oh, when the saints, oh, when the saints
Go marching in, oh, marching in
Oh, when the saints go marching in
Oh, Lord, I want to be in that number
Yeah, the saints go marching in
Oh, when the light begins
begins to shine
Oh, when that light begins to shine

When that light begins to shine
Oh, when the saints, oh, when the saints
Go marching in, oh, marching in
Oh, when the saints go marching in

Oh, when the saints go marching in
Oh, when the saints go marching in
I want to be in that number
Oh, when the saints go marching in
Oh, we are following the footsteps of the ones who went before

Sing out the sinners when the saints go marching in
Oh, when the saints go marching in
I want to be in that number
Oh, when the saints go marching in
And when the saints go marching in
When the saints go marching in
Oh, yeah
Oh, we are following the footsteps of the ones who went before
