D                      G            D 
Oh! mama I'm excited, I'm almost out of breath 
                            E             A7 
What I saw like to made me run myself to death 
D                                 G            D 
I was on the mountain side when I looked down below 
                                   A7               D 
And Glory Be! I thought I'd better come and let you know. 
 
 
 
      D7      D 
That  we got Company Comin' - Company Comin' 
                              A7 
We got Company Comin' up the road 
        D 
There  down the road about a mile 
        G 
They'll be here in a little while 
         D        A7           D 
There's Company Comin' up the road. 
 
 
 
Well Granny change your apron and Willie shine your shoes 
Sally put your new dress on, we got no time to lose 
I'll go find the welcome mat and spread it out with cheer 
I don't know yet just who they are,  
Can't make 'em out from here. 
 
  
But we got Company Comin' - Company Comin' 
We got Company Comin' up the road 
They're comin' up the mountain side 
Susie don't you run and hide 
There's Company Comin' up the road. 
 
 
Well run out to the henhouse and wring a neck or two 
We'll have chicken and dumplin's and some yaller gravy too 
Grandpa git yer fiddle down, they might want a tune 
Ev'rybody hurry 'cause them folks'll be here soon. 
 
 
We got Company Comin' - Company Comin' 
We got Company Comin' up the road 
Land of Goshens, I allow 
They'll be here any minute now 
There's Company Comin' up the road. 
 
Repeat last refrain.
