Join the Parade
Join The Parade
Out in the late November chill
Crowded behind blue barricades
Peering out over every window sill
Lucky children snap their window shades
The streamers flying through the air
Falling all around the marching band
The country singer smiles and waves her hand
And Im with you baby
And the voice in the public address saysPlease come and join the parade (the parade)
I know Im finally home and dry
Please come and join the parade
Dont let it pass you by (oh)Fat lady smiling as she roles by
The big red smile and a sloppy kiss
Furry friends slow follow (follow)
Black mascara creatures, yes
Your babys screaming in your ear
The black hair and a red nose face
Shes running backwards off the fire escape
But Im with you baby
And the voice in the public address saysPlease come and join the parade (the parade)
I know Im finally home and dry
Please come and join the parade
Dont let it pass you by
Dont let it pass you by (by)Yeah, please come and join the parade (the parade)
I know Im finally home and dry
Please come and join the parade (the parade)
Dont let it pass you by
Please, join the parade (the parade)
I know Im home
Please come and join the parade (the parade)
Dont let it pass you by
