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
