"She'll Be Coming 'Round the Mountain" is a traditional railroading folk song originally written in 1927 with lyrics by Carl Sandburg and music by Oliver Wallace. In the 1938 short animated film Mickey's Trailer, Goofy sings the song as he drives the car and trailer up the hill. In the 1941 short animated film Timber, Donald Duck sings the song during both the opening and the closing scenes. A portion of the song is done by Grace early in Home on the Range as she, Maggie and Mrs. Calloway begin their pursuit of Alameda Slim (although the way she sang and walked while she sang caused a vulture and his friend Clem to think she was about to die and circle over her until Maggie cleared out the misunderstanding).
The song was also used in the Mickey's Fun Songs video Campout at Walt Disney World under the title "Comin' Round the Mountain", and in the Disney's Sing-Along Songs video Little Patch of Heaven.
