Lyrics
[Verse 1]
On the day I was born
Said my father, said he
"I've an elegant legacy waiting for thee"
Here's a rhyme for your voice
And a song for your heart
Sing it whenever the world falls apart
[Verse 2]
Look, look, look to the rainbow
Follow it over the hill and the stream
Come on, here's a rainbow
Follow the fellow, follow the fellow
Follow the fellow who follows the dream
[Verse 3]
Follow fellow
Follow the fellow
Ooh, the fellow
Who follows the dream
[Verse 4]
So I packed up my heart
And I roamed the world free
To the east with the lark
To the west with a sea
And I searched high and low
Scanned the skies
Found it at last in my own true love's eyes
[Verse 5]
To rainbows
Follow it over the hill and stream
Look to the rainbow
Follow fellow
Follow the fellow
Woo, come on, follow the fellow
Follow the one who follows a dream
[Verse 6]
Follow the fellow, girl
Don't you wanna follow the fellow?
Follow the fellow
Huh, get up, put on your walkin' shoes
Get out early in the mornin'
Follow the dream
Come on, y'all, we can follow a dream
Ain't nothin' to it
Come on, follow, follow, follow, follow, follow the dream, dream, dream
[Verse 7]
Dream, dream, dream, dream
Dream, dream, dream, dream
Dream, dream, dream, dream, dream, dream, dream
Come on, y'all, let's follow the dream
Yeah, come follow
Darlin', that's all right
Gon' follow
Come on, we gotta
I want to follow, oh
Follow, forever
Follow, follow
We'll follow
The dream
Say, dream you in the morning
Said you're lovely, and I love your dance
