Lyrics Join the Parade - Marc Cohn

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
