Five Pennies Saints Lyrics - Danny Kaye

Oh, when the saints 

When the saints 

go marching in 

go marching in 

When the saints go marching in 

Oh, yes 

I wanna be in that number 

Oh, in that number 

When the saints go marching in 

And when the saints 

Oh, when the saints 

go marching in 

go marching in 

Who's gonna play on the day 

When the saints go marching in 

Well, Louis, I'll explain that. 

Now, the mostest and the greatest 

From the oldest to the latest 

Going to play in the band 

In the great grandstand 

When the saints go marching in 

Louis, what about Brahms 

He laid no bombs 

And Chopin 

Solid man 

And Bach, that great old massa 

Yeah, that great old massa was a gasser 

Yes, but Mozart the most with all he has 

With the symphonies and operas 

and all that jazz 

When the saints go marching in 

Do you dig Rachmaninoff? 

On and off. 

Rimsky? 

Of course-ikoff. 

Ravel and Gustav Mahler. 

Yeah, but don't forget Fats Waller. 

I wouldn't do that. 

Liszt has a twist that you can't resist 

Yeah. Yeah. Put Liszt on that list. 

When the saints go marching in 

Here we go, Louis. 

When the saints 

Oh, when the saints 

go marching in 

Look at this cat digging me. 

When the saints go marching in 

Face and all. 

I wanna be in that number 

When the saints go marching in 

There's Saint-Saens 

Saint-Saens c'est bon 

And Georges Bizet 

Très, très Bizet 

Vieuxtemps, Suppe, Massenet 

And Offenbach 

Do you dig him, Jacques? 

Very often. 

Well, Frère Jacques, Frère Jacques 

I dig you, Jacques, I dig you, Jacques 

Frère Jacques, Frère Jacques 

Massenet and Bizet 

Massenet and Bizet 

I dig you, Jacques, I dig you, Jacques 

Offenbach, Offenbach 

Massanet and Bizet 

Massenet and Bizet 

Often, Offenbach 

How about Wagner? 

Devout! 

And Haydn? 

Who? 

Joseph Haydn. 

Who? 

Haydn! Well, let him come out. 

Paganini. 

Rossini. 

Toscanini. 

Puccini. 

Khachaturian. 

'Gesundheit'. 

Thank you. 

And what's his name? 

Mr. Veedle-de-zop 

And you know that cat 

Yes..........(jazz improvization) 

Up too high 

Or too low 

Way up there 

Oh, yeah..........(jazz improvization) 

When the saints go marching in.
