[Lyric] Introduction (Paul Revere and the Raiders)

[Introduction]
Ha-ha, yes, it's Christmastime once again
You know and one of the many sounds of Christmas is the Salvation Army street band

Uh, one of the many sounds of Christmas is the Salvation Army street band

Ughmm, one of the many sounds of Christmas is the Salvation Army street band!!!

[Music]

Ha-ha, there's no mistaking that sound
That's a genuine Salvation Army street band
You know these guys come out here every year
And it's not easy playing in one of these bands in below zero temperatures

Fingers are numb and lips are blue, it's no picnic
These guys could use a little of your appreciation

Next time you pass the band
Take a little time and drop a coin in the pot
You'll get a nice friendly smile from a lady with the bell
And you'll feel a lot better inside
These guys are just like the band on your corner of your town, USA

Let's take some time and hear the band, shall we?

Thank you very much guys
And now let's get on with some more fine music from this album

Ah, that's fine guys
Now, let's hear some more different kind of music from this album

Thanks very much for coming out guys, but that, that's enough

Take five!

Thank you very much, all the musicians can go home now!!

That's all we need!!!

Will you guys go now!!!
