When she retired
We thought she'd sit by the fire
In her rocking chair
Drift off in the ozone somewhere
But first she got a scooter
Then a computer
And it's hard to explain
Now she's building a jet plane

And she'll be coming 'round the mountain when she comes
(When she comes)
She'll be coming 'round the mountain when she comes
(When she comes)
We thought she'd just rеtire
Ah, but something lit her firе
And she'll be coming 'round the mountain when she comes
(When she comes)

She'll be flying in her jet plane when she comes
(Here she comes)
She'll be flying in her jet plane when she comes
(Here she comes)
She thought she'd make some change
Giving rides on her new plane
And she'll be flying 'round the mountain when she comes
(Here she comes)
And she's learned to fly a helicopter, too
(There she goes)
Yes, she's learned to fly a helicopter, too
(There she goes)
Ahe she'll be "Live at Five"
Reporting traffic from the sky
And she'll be flying 'round the mountain when she comes
(There she goes)

Sometimes when there's rain
She doesn't fly her plane
It's just too cloudy to suit her
She walks out in the fog
Fires up her Road Hog
Goes screaming past on her scooter

And she'll be coming 'round the mountain when she comes
(When she comes)
She'll be coming 'round the mountain when she comes
(When she comes)
In case you didn't know
She's got a paper route to throw
And she'll be coming 'round the mountain when she comes
(When she comes)

And she also likes to run a mile or two
(Mile or two)
Yes, she also likes to run a mile or two
(Mile or two)
She says she's going to try
Reaching aerobics at the "Y"
And she'll be coming 'round the mountain when she comes
(When she...)
And she's also going to get her PhD
(PhD)
Yes, she's also going to get her PhD
(PhD)
She said, "I may be old
But I won't sit around and mold
And she'll be coming 'round the mountain when she comes
(When she comes)
She'll be coming 'round the mountain when she comes
(When she comes)
She'll be coming 'round the mountain when she
Hang on now!
Comes?!
