Harlem on Parade
In the distance, I heard a sound
The sound of marching men
I turned my head to view
The drum boy, the bugle boy and then
Harlem soldiers on the move
See them marching in the groove
Uncle Sam is mighty proud of Harlem on parade
With a smile, they all perform
In a full drape uniform
Everybody's here to cheer for Harlem on parade
When you hear the bugle blow
That's the time you're bound to know
That the man behind the horn is as handy with a gun
When there's fighting to be done
Every heart within the crowd
Beats it out with head unbowed
Uncle Sam is mighty proud of Harlem on parade
When you hear the bugle blow
That's the time you're bound to know
That the man behind the horn is as handy with a gun
When there's fighting to be done
Every heart within the crowd
Beats it out with head unbowed
Uncle Sam is mighty proud of Harlem on parade
The sound of marching men
I turned my head to view
The drum boy, the bugle boy and then
Harlem soldiers on the move
See them marching in the groove
Uncle Sam is mighty proud of Harlem on parade
With a smile, they all perform
In a full drape uniform
Everybody's here to cheer for Harlem on parade
When you hear the bugle blow
That's the time you're bound to know
That the man behind the horn is as handy with a gun
When there's fighting to be done
Every heart within the crowd
Beats it out with head unbowed
Uncle Sam is mighty proud of Harlem on parade
When you hear the bugle blow
That's the time you're bound to know
That the man behind the horn is as handy with a gun
When there's fighting to be done
Every heart within the crowd
Beats it out with head unbowed
Uncle Sam is mighty proud of Harlem on parade
