Hit Parade of Love Lyrics

Jimmy Martin & The Smokey River Boys

[ Banjo opening]

[1] From what I've been a hearing….dear you've really got it made....
You've got a lot of fellers…on your lover's hit parade....
And if I can't be your number one….well I don't know what I'll do....
I wanna be... plumb up to the top…I'm so in love with you

[CHO] ON THE HIT PARADE OF LOVE.. I KNOW I'LL NEVER STOP
I'VE GOT A LONG LONG WAY TO CLIMB…. BEFORE I REACH THE TOP
BUT IF I DO… GET THERE SOON… I'LL REALLY HAVE IT MADE
THEN I'LL KNOW I'M NUMBER ONE….ON YOUR LOVER'S HIT PARADE

INSTRUMENTAL TURN-A-ROUND

[2] Now it's your heart I'm after dear… 'cause it's so nice and kind
Another one to take your place…. would sure be hard to find....
So put your arms around me…. and be my turtle dove....
Then I'll feel like I'm number one…. on your hit parade of love....

[CHO] ON THE HIT PARADE OF LOVE.. I KNOW I'LL NEVER STOP
I'VE GOT A LONG LONG WAY TO CLIMB…. BEFORE I REACH THE TOP
BUT IF I DO GET THERE SOON… I'LL REALLY HAVE IT MADE
THEN I'LL KNOW I'M NUMBER ONE….ON YOUR LOVER'S HIT PARADE

[Banjo picks here 8 bars]

[3] Now if we work together… like all good lovers should
We can make a go of it… everything will turn out good
We can have so much fun…. we'll really have it made
Then I'll know I'm number one…. on your lover's hit parade

[CHO] ON THE HIT PARADE OF LOVE.. I KNOW I'LL NEVER STOP
I'VE GOT A LONG LONG WAY TO CLIMB…. BEFORE I REACH THE TOP
BUT IF I DO GET THERE SOON… I'LL REALLY HAVE IT MADE
THEN I'LL KNOW I'M NUMBER ONE….ON YOUR LOVER'S HIT PARADE

TAG: Then I'll know I'm number one..on your lover's hit parade

STOP
