Carol Channing - Before the Parade Pa**es By lyrics

[DOLLY] Before the parade pa**es by I've gotta go and taste Saturday's high life Before the parade pa**es by I'm gotta get some life back into my life I'm ready to move out in front I've had enough of just pa**ing by life With the rest of them With the best of them I can hold my head up high For I've got a goal again I've got a drive again I'm gonna feel my heart coming alive again Before the parade pa**es by! Look at that crowd up ahead Listen and hear that bra** harmony growing Look at that crowd up ahead Pardon me if my old spirit is showing All of those lights over there Seem to be telling me where I'm going When the whistle blows And the cymbals crash And the sparklers light the sky I'm gonna raise the roof I'm gonna to carry on Give me an old trombone Give me an old baton Before the parade pa**es by [COMPANY] Before the parade pa**es by Listen and hear that bra** harmony growing When the parade pa**es by Pardon me if my old spirit is showing All of those lights over there Seem to be telling me where I'm going When the whistle blows And the symbols crash And the sparklers light the sky I'm gonna raise the roof I'm gonna to carry on Give me an old trombone Give me an old baton Before the parade pa**es by I'm gonna raise the roof I'm gonna to carry on Give me an old trombone Give me an old baton Before the parade pa**es by!
