Life Is Just A Passing Parade

When I was a little boy
I was raised down south in Mexico
Nothing ever happened that was new to me
Then one day we saw circus posters on the wall
Suddenly, All my friends and I
We heard a sound
It was loud
Music all around us seemed to make us free

Life is just a passing paradise
Life is just a passing paradise

Everybody started dancing
I never saw so many people having so much fun

Now I'm living in this country
And I've got myself a steady job
I keep seeing people happy everywhere
All I get to do is play my guitar

Come on! Everybody get together, have some fun
Come on! Everybody get together, have some fun

Life is just a passing paradise
Life is just a passing paradise

Everybody started dancing
I never saw so many people having so much fun

La Vida Es Solo Un Desfile Pasante

Cuando era un pequeño chico
Fue criado en el sur de mexico
Nunca nada nuevo me paso
Entonces un dia vimos porters de un circo en la pared
De repente, todos mis amigos y yo
Escuchamos un sonido
Estuvo ruidoso
La música alrededor nos parecía hacernos libres

La vida es solo un desfile pasante
La vida es solo un desfile pasante

Todos empezaron a bailar
Nuca vi tanta gente teniendo tanta diversión

Ahora estoy viviendo en este país
y tengo un trabajo estable
sigo viendo la gente feliz en todos lados
todo lo que hago es tocar mi guitarra

vamos, todos juntémonos, diviértanse
vamos, todos juntos, tengan diversion

La vida es solo un desfile pasante
La vida es solo un desfile pasante

Todos empezaron a bailar
Nunca vi tanta gente teniendo tanta diversion
