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 I'm with you baby 
And the voice in the public address says... 

Please come and join the parade (the parade) 
I know I'm finally home and dry 
Please come and join the parade 
Don't 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 baby's screaming in your ear 
The black hair and a red nose face 
She's running backwards off the fire escape 
But I'm with you baby 
And the voice in the public address says... 

Please come and join the parade (the parade) 
I know I'm finally home and dry 
Please come and join the parade 
Don't let it pass you by 
Don't let it pass you by (by) 

Yeah, please come and join the parade (the parade) 
I know I'm finally home and dry 
Please come and join the parade (the parade) 
Don't let it pass you by 
Please, join the parade (the parade) 
I know I'm home 
Please come and join the parade (the parade) 
Don't let it pass you by
