Lyrics:
Pa‑ra rum‑pa, pa‑ra rum‑pa…
Shoo‑ba da‑ra, tap‑tap‑ta…
Drums start talkin’ as the streets wake up…
Pa‑ra rum‑pa, pa‑ra…
Boots on the pavement and a tuba hum,
Banjo pickin’ out a ragtime strum.
Clarinet is laughin’ with a playful slide,
Brass boys steppin’ with a Crescent City pride.
Neighbors on the porches, smilin’ as we pass,
Wavin’ to the rhythm of that early‑morning brass.
Parade at sunrise, marchin’ down the lane,
Trumpets tell a story only they can explain.
Every beat is dancin’, every step’s a tune,
New Orleans is singin’ in the heart of June.
Snare drum chatter with a rat‑a‑tat‑roll,
Cornet jumpin’ like it’s losin’ control.
Kids start followin’ with a skippin’ beat,
Turnin’ every corner into Basin Street.
Every horn is shoutin’, every soul’s awake,
Music in the morning that the city loves to make.
Parade at sunrise, marchin’ proud and free,
Rhythms from the river driftin’ to the sea.
Every beat is dancin’, every step’s a tune,
New Orleans is singin’ in the heart of June.
Pa‑ra rum‑pa, pa‑ra rum‑pa…
(“Let the brass band play!”)
Pa‑ra rum‑pa, pa‑ra rum‑pa…
(“Start another day!”)
Second‑line steppin’, feet don’t ever tire,
Jazz keeps burnin’ like a southern fire.
Shoo‑ba da‑ra, tap‑tap‑ta…
Hear the morning hummin’ as we pass…
Pa‑ra rum‑pa, pa‑ra rum‑pa…
Marchin’ with the heart of brass…
