One More Parade
Lyricist:Bob Gibson, Phil Ochs
Hup, two, three, four, marching down the street Rolling of the drums and the trampin' of the feet General salutes and mothers wave and weep
Here comes the big parade Don't be afraid Price is paid One more parade
So young, so strong, so ready for the war So willing to go and die upon a foreign shore All march together, everybody looks the same
So there's no one you can blame Don't be ashamed Light the flame One more parade
Listen for the sound and listen for the noise Listen for the thunder of the marching boys A few years ago their guns were only toys
Here comes the big parade Don't be afraid Price is paid One more parade
So young, so strong, so ready for the war So willing to go and die upon a foreign shore All march together, everybody looks the same

Medals on their coats and guns in their hands Trained to kill as they're trained to stand 10,000 ears need only one command
Here comes the big parade Don't be afraid Price is paid One more parade
So young, so strong, so ready for the war So willing to go and die upon a foreign shore All march together, everybody looks the same
So there's no one you can blame Don't be ashamed Light the flame One more parade
Cold hard stares on faces so proud Kisses from the girls and cheers from the crowd And the widows from the last war cry into their shrouds
Here comes the big parade Don't be afraid, price is paid Don't be ashamed, war's a game World in flames, so start the parade
