The Beatles – The Saints Song Lyrics

About The Beatles: The Beatles were an English rock band formed in Liverpool in 1960. They became the most commercially successful and critically acclaimed act in the history of popular music. Their best-known lineup consisted of John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison, and Ringo Starr. Rooted in skiffle and 1950s rock and roll, they later utilised several genres, ranging from pop ballads to psychedelic rock, often incorporating classical and other elements in innovative ways. In the early 1960s, their enormous popularity first emerged as “Beatlemania”, but as their songwriting grew in sophistication, they came to be perceived by many fans and cultural observers as an embodiment of the ideals shared by the era’s sociocultural revolutions.

Featured Singers: The Beatles, Tony Sheridan  


Lyrics:

Well a-when the saints go marching in,
When the saints go marching in
Mm I want to be, I’m gonna be in that number,
Ooo when the saints go marching in.

Oh when the sun yeah begins to shine.
When that old sun begins to shine,
I tell you something I’m gonna be I’m gonna be in that number,
When the sun begins to shine.

Yeah when my lord calls me home again,
Ah when my lord calls me home again,
I’ll tell you I’m gonna be in that number,
Oh when my lord calls me home again.

Oh when the saints go marching in,
When the saints go marching in
I tell you something I’m gonna be I’m gonna be in that number,
When the saints go marching in.

Well when the sun yeah begins to shine.
When that sun begins to shine,
I tell you something I’m gonna be I’m gonna be in that number,
When that old sun begins to shine.

Lazy one time.
Mm mm, yeh, alright, mm, yeah,
Ooo when the saints go marching in.

Yeah when the saints go marching in,
Yeah when the saints go marching in
I tell you something, I’m gonna be I’m gonna be in that number,
Yeah when the saints go marching in.

Yeah when my lord calls me home again,
Ah when my lord calls me home again,
I’ll tell you I’m gonna be in that number,
Oh when the saints go marching in.
