Let's snap our fingers clap our hands
  Down by the riverside, down by the riverside, down by the riverside
  Let's give 'em what the song demands
  Down by the riverside, down by the riverside
    We'll hear them playing keep that beat
  Down by the riverside, down by the riverside, down by the riverside
  Let's get together what a treat
  Down by the riverside, down by the riverside
    Strike up the band, start the parade
  Don't let that grand old rhythm fade
  Just play that drum, play that number
  When the saints come marchin' in
    Shake tambourines, play that cornet
  Crank up that horn you won't forget
  Your heart will hum to that number
  When the saints come marchin' in
    The cymbals clang, just pound that beat
  Sounds like a hundred marching feet
  It's fun to join in that number
  When the saints come marchin' in
    See banners wave, oh hear that ring
  We all feel prouder than a king
  'Cause everyone, everyone loves that number
  When the saints come marchin' in
