You got lost in the crowd
The waves of people in Chinatown
Can't get behind this mystery
Do you believe everything you see?
Just a shadow in the streetlight
Just a shadow on the wall
A silhouette, face in the darkness
I've been waiting for your call
We'll go marching in the night parade
We'll be marching in the night parade
ย
I combed the streets like cloak and dagger
I put the word out on the waterfront
We were living hard, living fast
Outrunning ghosts from the past
Just a shadow in the moonlight
Just a shadow, shadow on the wall
A silhouette, the kiss of death
Did somebody take the fall?
We'll go marching in the night parade
We'll be marching in the night parade
ย
Oh, Mary, Mary, Mary
I'm knocking on your door
Mary, Mary, sanctuary
Can't see you no more
From out of the past a stranger came
And carried you away
I stood on the corner, the scene of the crime
And I could hear her say
We'll be marching in the night parade
We'll be marching, marching in the night parade
We'll go marching, marching in the night parade
We'll go marching, marching in the night parade
In the night parade
All y'all living in a street opera
Are we just living in a street opera, oh
We'll be marching in the night parade, oh darlin'
And we'll be marching, marching out here in the night parade
In the night parade (we'll be marching)
Walking the night beat, the rhythm of the street (in the night parade)
Walkin' to the heartbeat of the city (we'll be marching)
Walking the night beat, the rhythm of the street (in the night parade)
Moving to the heartbeat of the city, of the city way downtown
Moving to the heartbeat of the city
(We'll be marching in the night parade)
(We'll be marching)
People, Mardi Gras come on in the night parade
(We'll be marching)
People Mardi Gras, people Mardi Gras
In the nigh parade
