Life Is Just a Passing Parade

When I was a little boy I was raised down south in mexico Nothing ever happened that was new to me Then one day we saw circus posters on the wall Suddenly, all my friends and I We heard a sound It was loud Music all around us seemed to make us free Life is just a passing paradise Life is just a passing paradise Everybody started dancing I never saw so many people having so much fun Now I'm living in this country And I have got myself a steady job I keep seeing people happy everywhere All I get to do is play my guitar Come on! everybody get together, have some fun Come on! everybody get together, have some fun Life is just a passing paradise Life is just a passing paradise Everybody started dancing I never saw so many people having so much fun
