Chiang-Kai-shek's figure looks down on it all
My Daddy's a soldier who works for the Guard,
"The marching and stamping is terribly hard."
says Daddy.

Chiang-Kai-shek's figure looks down on it all
Daddy's helmet is shiny, his uniform pressed,
I help polish boots,
"And mine always look best!"
says Daddy.

My Mommy and I watch my Daddy parade
"I'd do this job whether

Click! Clack! go the boots as they snap into place.
Crick! Crack! go the guns,
"But we point into space"
says Daddy.
My Mommy and I, stand silent and tall
For the Changing of Guard at Memorial Hall.
"Do you think my Daddy knows that we're here?"
"He sees and he knows, and he's proud of you, Dear."
says Mommy.
