Where shall I follow, follow, thee. Where shall I follow, follow, follow, follow. Come follow, follow, follow, follow, follow, follow, me. To the redwood, to the redwood, to the redwood, redwood tree. Where shall I follow, follow, thee Where shall I follow, follow, follow. Come follow, follow, follow, follow, follow, follow, me. To the redwood, to the redwood, to the redwood, redwood tree.. Where shall I follow, follow, thee. Where shall I follow, follow, follow. To the redwood, to the redwood, to the redwood, redwood tree.
