Avenue Brass Parade

Intro

Hey

Oh-oh

Listen to the horns now

Chorus

Come on down the avenue

Bring your cousins bring your crew

Trumpets up and drums go boom

Sun is high and shade is few

Come on down the avenue

Whole street jumping like a pool

Saxophone is blowing loud

We gon' shake this whole crowd

Verse 1

Sandals on the warm sidewalk

Ice melting in my hand

Somebody's uncle starts to talk

Then the trombone takes command

Kids are marching in a line

Grannies clapping on the porch

Sweat and sugar lemon rind

Everybody's got a torch

Chorus

Come on down the avenue

Bring your neighbors bring your crew

Drums are rolling boom boom boom

Sun is high and shade is few

Come on down the avenue

Whole street jumping like a pool

Saxophone is blowing loud

We gon' shake this whole crowd

Post-Chorus

Hey hey hey

Blow blow blow

Hey hey hey

Go go go

Verse 2

Barefoot running past the store

Coins rattling in a cup

Somebody's drumming on a door

Everybody's looking up

Brass and rhythm hand in hand

Feet don't ever wanna stop

Palm trees waving on the strand

Nothing here is gonna drop
