| We are traveling 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) | 
| Oh when the saints go marching in | 
| When the saints go marching in | 
| Oh 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 | 
| Oh 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 | 
| Oh lord I want to be in that number | 
| When the saints go marching in | 
| On that hallelujah day | 
| On that hallelujah day | 
| Oh lord I want to be in that number | 
| When the saints go marching in | 
| Oh when the trumpet sounds the call | 
| Oh when the trumpet sounds the call | 
| Oh lord I want to be in that number | 
| When the saints go marching in | 
| 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 | 
| When the revelation (revolution) comes | 
| When the revelation (revolution) comes | 
| Oh lord I want to be in that number | 
| When the saints go marching in | 
| When the rich go out and work |

| Oh lord I want to be in that number | 
| When the saints go marching in | 
| When the air is pure and clean |

| Oh lord I want to be in that number | 
| When the saints go marching in | 
| When we all have food to eat |
