Lyrics
Two by two
They go marching through
The sweethearts on paradeI can’t help cry
As they pass me by
The sweethearts on paradeI’d love to join the fun
But they bar me
‘Cause it takes more than one to join
Their armyHow I pine
Just to fall in line
With the sweethearts on paradeAll alone I stand
Looking out my window
My sweethearts hand in hand
Gallanting by my windowIt seems just like they’re passing in revue
And as they pass they make me feel so blueAll 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 trueTwo by two
They go marching through
The sweethearts on paradeI can’t help cry
As they pass me by
The sweethearts on paradeI’d love to join their fun
But they bar me
‘Cause it takes more than one to join
Their armyHow I pine
Just to fall in line
With the sweethearts on parade
