Текст песни I Want To See The Parade - Tom T. Hall
Hold
me
up,
I
want
to
see
the
parade
There
was
a
demonstration
in
our
town,
quiet
but
very
tense
I've
always
been
a
bit
nosy,
so
I
guess
that's
the
reason
I
went
There
were
people
carrying
signs
that
said,
"we
want
equality
now."
And
I
thought
to
myself,
"boy,
look
at
that
will
you.
look
what
the
law
allows."
A
little
girl
and
her
mother
were
standing
up
next
to
the
curb
The
little
girl
said,
"mommy,
I
can't
see
the
parade",
and
it
happened
that
I
heard
The
woman
who
was
with
the
little
girl
was
small,
and
when
she
turned
and
smiled
I
thought
I'd
do
them
a
favor,
so
I
offered
to
hold
the
child
When
I
held
the
little
girl
in
my
arms,
I
was
glad
of
the
offer
I'd
made
She
said,
"thank
you,
mister,
for
holding
me
up;
I
wanted
to
see
the
parade."
Then
she
asked
me
a
question,
and
it
took
me
by
surprise
She
said,
"mister,
why
does
my
daddy
hate
all
those
people
going
by?
"
I
said,
"well
you
know
they're
not
the
same--but
listen
to
me"
And
I
noticed
that
the
child
was
blind,
so
I
looked
around
for
an
answer;
it
was
pretty
hard
to
find
So
I
set
her
down
by
her
mama's
side
and
I
patted
her
on
the
head
And
that
night
as
I
sat
in
my
own
little
room,
I
thought
of
the
words
she
said
And
that
night,
I
took
a
good
look
at
myself,
and
this
is
the
prayer
I
prayed
I
said,
"lord,
I
want
you
to
hold
me
up,
'cause
I
want
to
see
the
parade."
