a round about christmas

Singer:kingston trio, the

christmas is coming. the goose is getting fat

please put a penny in the old man's hat

if you haven't got a penny

then a ha' penny will do

if you haven't got a ha' penny

then god bless you

'round about the mountain. 'round about the mountain

my god is waitin'. you can rise in his arms

my god is waitin'. you can rise in his arms

the lord loves a sinner. the lord loves a sinner man

the lord loves a sinner who will rise in his arms

i would not be a sinner. i'll tell you the reason why

if the lord should want me

i would not be ready to die

i tell you fellow members

things happen mighty strange

the lord was good to israel and his ways don't ever change

the lord loves a sinner. the lord loves a sinner man

the lord loves a sinner who will rise in his arms

sometimes i feel discouraged and think my works in vain

but then the holy spirit revives my soul again

if you can't pray like peter

if you can't preach like paul

go home and tell your neighbor that he died to save us all

the lord loves a sinner. the lord loves a sinner man

the lord loves a sinner who will rise in his arms

'round about the mountain. 'round about the mountain

my god is waitin'. you can rise in his arms

the lord loves a sinner. the lord loves a sinner man

the lord loves a sinner who will rise in his arms
