Lyrics

Two by two
They go marching through
The sweethearts on parade

I can’t help cry
As they pass me by
The sweethearts on parade

I’d love to join the fun
But they bar me
‘Cause it takes more than one to join
Their army

How I pine
Just to fall in line
With the sweethearts on parade

All alone I stand
Looking out my window
My sweethearts hand in hand
Gallanting by my window

It seems just like they’re passing in revue
And as they pass they make me feel so blue

All my skies are gray
And I am oh so lonesome
‘Cause every single day
Just finds me by my own some
And as I see those sweethearts
Bail on through
I wonder if my dreams will ever come true

Two by two
They go marching through
The sweethearts on parade

I can’t help cry
As they pass me by
The sweethearts on parade

I’d love to join their fun
But they bar me
‘Cause it takes more than one to join
Their army

How I pine
Just to fall in line
With the sweethearts on parade
