Lyrics
Sitting on the curb waiting for the parade to come
Sitting on the curb waiting for the parade to come
Everybody’s all around
Waiting on the neutral ground
My friends they are all jingling
Glittering full of gold
They’ve got a shimmer in their eyes
And glitter gold in their souls
Got a string of feather boas
Crown of sparkly jewels on my head
Got a whiskey and a cola
Dancing down to Frenchmen
Sitting on the curb waiting for the parade to come
Sitting on the curb waiting for the parade to come
Everybody’s all around
Waiting on the neutral ground
We drink all afternoon
Were howling at the moon
The stars shine in my lovers eyes
We raise and glass and cheers to the skies
Now we’re down on Frenchmen dancing till the sun comes up
When tomorrow comes again you know what well be doing when the sun comes up
We’ll be sitting on the curb waiting for the parade to come
Waiting for the parade to come
Waiting for the parade to come
Waiting for the parade to come
