So we waved our hands as we marched along   And the people smiled as we sang our song   And the world was saved as they listened to the band   And the Banner-Man held the banner high      He was ten feet tall and he touched the sky   And I wish that I could be a Banner-Man      Glory, glory, glory      Listen to the band   Sing the same old story   Ain't it something grand?   To be good as you can   Like a Banner-Man      And the drums went, boom as the cornets play   And the tuba, "Umba'' "D", all the way   And the kids and the dogs were laughing as they ran   And the Banner-Man held the banner high   With an Allelujah in his eye   And I wish that I could be a Banner-Man      Glory, glory, glory      So we reached the square, on the top of the hill   And the music stopped and we stood still   And a few were saved and the people said   Amen      Then we all got up and we formed a queue   And the drums went, bang as the trumpets blew   And we marched back down into the town again
