[00:11.023]In the distance I heard a sound,
[00:16.222]The sound of marching men;
[00:21.995]I turned my head to view
[00:27.376]The drum boy, the bugle boy, and then;
[00:38.635]Harlem soldiers on the move,
[00:41.325]See them marching in the groove,
[00:44.042]Uncle Sam is mighty proud
[00:46.471]Of Harlem on parade.
[00:49.528]With a smile they all perform
[00:52.244]In a full drape uniform;
[00:54.961]Everybody's here to cheer
[00:57.260]For Harlem on parade.
[00:59.742]When you hear the bugle blow,
[01:02.406]That's the time you're bound to know
[01:05.280]That the man behind the horn
[01:08.127]Is as handy with a gun
[01:09.668]When there's fighting to be done!
[01:11.131]Every heart within the crowd
[01:14.031]Beats it out with head unbowed,
[01:16.669]Uncle Sam is mighty proud
[01:19.098]Of Harlem on parade.
[02:16.489]When you hear the bugle blow,
[02:19.180]That's the time you're bound to know
[02:21.871]That the man behind the horn
[02:24.640]Is as handy with a gun
[02:25.946]When there's fighting to be done!
[02:27.670]Every heart within the crowd
[02:30.413]Beats it out with head unbowed,
[02:33.182]Uncle Sam is mighty proud
[02:35.663]Of Harlem on parade.
