Harlem on Parade

Harlem on Parade - Nico Muhly (尼可·穆利)

Written by：Benny Carter/Redd

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 blow

That's the time have 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 bugle blow

That's the time 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
