The Caissons Go Rolling Along

The Caissons Go Rolling Along

The Caissons Go Rolling Along is the song in the video A Day at Camp. It uses the instrumental from 'The Circus is Coming to Town' (which was in the previous video), while adding the Emu Proteus Orchestral timbre, "Proteus 1- Snare Drum". And has the same tune as The Rocket Song from “Barney and Friends".

Lyrics

Over hill, over dale,
We have hit the dusty trail,
And those caissons go rolling along.

In and out, hear them shout,
Counter march and right about,
And those caissons go rolling along.

Then it's Hi! Hi! Hee!
In the field artillery,
Sound off your numbers loud and strong (2, 3, 4).

Where'er you go,
You will always know,
That those caissons are rolling along.
That those caissons are rolling along.

Take the path through the trees,
Guess what's hiding in the leaves,
(clap) As our team goes hiking along.

Look up high, look down low,
Keep your eyes on where they go,
(clap) As our team goes hiking along.

Then it's Hi! Hi! Hee!
In the field artillery,
Sound off your numbers loud and strong (2, 3, 4).

Where'er you go,
You will always know,
That those caissons are rolling along. (Keep 'em rolling!)
That those caissons are rolling along. (Keep 'em rolling!)

That those cais-...sons are roll-...ing... along...!
