Comin' 'Round the Mountain 
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.
