PARK PARADE, THE
(Arthur Young, Anthony Page, Tommy Duggan)
As recorded by:
Ambrose & His Orchestra
V. Denny Dennis
Recorded 2nd March 1939
When my girl and I go out
And join the park parade
Arm in arm we stroll along
A happy man and maid
Very soon she’ll smile at me
And I shall hold her hand
Strolling in the park parade
Nothing’s half so grand
While the band is playing
To a waltz we will sway
Then you’ll see us struttin’ along down
Swinging our blues away
And if we should quarrel
We’ll make up and understand
Strolling in the park parade
Yippee, ain’t love grand.
