I Love To March Lyrics

I love to march,
I love to march,
I love to march,
to the beat of the drum.

I love to march,
I love to march,
I love to march,
to the slide of the trombone.

I love to march,
I love to march,
I love to march,
to the crash of the cymbals.

I love to march,
I love to march,
I love to march,
to the sound of the band.
