You will be transported to a Chinese New Years Day Parade! Listen here: Down Chinatown Way [1] Down Chinatown Way ©2003 by Marla Lewis On the fifteenth day of the lunar New Year We take a train down to Chinatown To celebrate with a jubilant crowd Parade begins as the sun goes down Down Chinatown Way New Year’s Day Down Chinatown Way See the Lion dancers in crimson and gold Twist and turn to the cymbal and drum Firecrackers go crackle and bang Bringing luck for the year to come Down Chinatown Way New Year’s Day Down Chinatown Way They left their home with American dreams Of freedom and opportunity And they brought their ancient traditional themes To share today with you and me See the children’s Lantern Procession float past As dragons flash their vermilion eyes “Ooh’s” and “ah’s” are crescendoing now As fireworks fill the evening skies Down Chinatown Way New Year’s Day Down Chinatown Way (Gongs & cymbals clang Gung hoy fat choy May you prosper and enjoy) This article is from Marla Lewis   http://www.marlalewis.com/ The URL for this story is:   http://www.marlalewis.com/modules.php?op=modload&name=News&file=article&sid=472 Links in this article   [1] http://www.marlalewis.com/pid-52,Down%20Chinatown%20Way.htm
