FOLLOW ME BOYS
Robert B. Sherman and Richard M. Sherman
From the Walt Disney Film "Follow Me Boys"
Based upon the book: God and My Country By MacKinlay Kantor

Follow me boys, Follow me!
When you think you're really beat,
That's the time to lift your feet,
And follow me boys, follow me!
Pick them up, put them down,
And follow me.
 
Sergeant Reilley said, There's a fight to win!
Follow me boys, follow me!
And it won't be done till we all pitch in.
Lift your chin with a grin and follow me!
 
Follow me boys, follow me!
 
When you think you're really beat,
That's the time to lift your feet,
And follow me boys, follow me!
Pick them up, put them down,
And follow me.
 
Shout: Pick them up, put them down, pick them up!
 
It's a long long time, but we've got the will.
Follow me boys, follow me!
When we reach the top then it's all down hill.
Till you drop, don't stop, and follow me!
 
Follow me boys, follow me!
When you think you're really beat,
That's the time to lift your feet,
And follow me boys, follow me!
Pick them up, put them down,
And follow me.
 
Though the journey's end is beyond our sight.
Follow me boys, follow me!
If we do our best then we've done all right.
Pack you load, hit the road, and follow me!
 
Follow me boys, follow me!
When you think you're really beat,
That's the time to lift your feet,
And follow me boys, follow me.
Pick them up, put them down
And follow me.
 
Shout: Pick them up, put them down, pick them up!
 
We were all packed in when the sergeant said,
Follow me boys, follow me!
We got off our backs and prepared our attack,
When our sergeant hollered, Follow me!
 
Follow me boys, follow me!
When you think you're really beat,
That's the time to lift your feet,
And follow me boys, follow me.
Pick them up, put them down
And follow me.
 
There's a job to do, there's a fight to win,
Follow me boys, follow me!
And it won't be done till we all pitch in.
Lift your chin with a grin, and follow me!
 
Follow me boys, follow me!
When you think you're really beat,
That's the time to lift your feet,
And follow me boys, follow me.
Pick them up, put them down
And follow me.
