I found a cart with one bad wheel
Rolling like it had a deal
Sun on the hood of my old ride
A kid drew stars on the side

A woman laughed by aisle four
Dropped two limes and asked for more
I took the long way to my truck
Just to feel that lucky luck

And it's strange
How the small things glow
When your whole day
Says take it slow

Parking lot parade
Parking lot parade
Everybody moves, everybody sways
Parking lot parade
Parking lot parade
Little mess, big day
Parking lot parade

A folded note in the cart return
Said: Keep going: Made me turn
A dog in a vest, a boy in red
A paper crown on Grandma's head

Someone spilled grapes, nobody cussed
Just picked them up in half a rush
And for a minute, I could see
The whole wide world was kind to me

And it's strange
How the small things glow
When your whole day
Says take it slow

Parking lot parade
Parking lot parade
Everybody moves, everybody sways
Parking lot parade
Parking lot parade
Little mess, big day
Parking lot parade

No grand stage, no perfect plan
Just a cart and an open hand
All that clutter, all that noise
Turns to banners, turns to joy

Parking lot parade
Parking lot parade
Everybody moves, everybody sways
Parking lot parade
Parking lot parade
Little mess, big day
Parking lot parade
