Susan Boyd - Forever We're Marching lyrics

When we hear the trumpets blow The band is on the go But where we go we never know so Forever we're marching, marching, marching We're marching with clarinets and drums In halls and auditoriums Forever we're marching, marching, marching On weekends we claim Our moment of fame We're marching at every football game Forever we're marching, marching, marching We're marching with vigor and with vim In beautiful parks and in the gym Forever we're marching, marching, marching While everyone roars We're doing our chores We're marching at big department stores While majorettes twirl batons up high Forever we march On Fourth of July We never stop for the apple pie Forever we march We're forever marching The piccolo and tub players don't complain They know the life in a marching band can't be beat But after all the marching that a band has got to do We wish just once that we could res Our achin' feet (my achin' feet) He needs a seat (I need a seat) To rest his feet (to rest my feet) Give him a seat to rest his feet (my achin' feet, oh!) But it's our duty as musicians to march on No one's to blame goodness knows it's no one's fault But every now and then we really wish that our drum major Would stop marching and give us the order halt
