American ![]() | She'll be coming round the mountain |
"She'll be coming round the mountain" is another childhood song from my primary school days at St. Stephen's, Worcester. The version I now sing is an amalgam taken from Lieder, Songs und Gospels 1 and Die Mundorgel.
It's a great song for children as it can really be spun out, lending itself for making a verses on the fly. Why shouldn't big kids sing it too!
