|
So we waved our hands as we marched along |
|
And the people smiled as we sang our song |
|
And the world was saved as they listened to the band |
|
And the Banner-Man held the banner high |
|
He was ten feet tall and he touched the sky |
|
And I wish that I could be a Banner-Man |
|
Glory, glory, glory |
|
Listen to the band |
|
Sing the same old story |
|
Ain't it something grand? |
|
To be good as you can |
|
Like a Banner-Man |
|
And the drums went, boom as the cornets play |
|
And the tuba, "Umba'' "D", all the way |
|
And the kids and the dogs were laughing as they ran |
|
And the Banner-Man held the banner high |
|
With an Allelujah in his eye |
|
And I wish that I could be a Banner-Man |
|
Glory, glory, glory |
|
So we reached the square, on the top of the hill |
|
And the music stopped and we stood still |
|
And a few were saved and the people said |
|
Amen |
|
Then we all got up and we formed a queue |
|
And the drums went, bang as the trumpets blew |
|
And we marched back down into the town again |
