21 Men





21 men are entering a ship to sail the sea

they're waving me goodbye

Nine of them from Britain, whiskey in their hands

a shanty in their lips like a happy sigh





No matter where you might go

I will follow you, I will follow you

I will follow you to Ireland or Scotland

Believe me I will do

Believe me I will do



21 men are entering a ship to sail the sea

on their face a happy smile

Four of them from China, rice wine in china cups

looks like they're back home in just a while



No matter where you might go

I will follow you, I will follow you

I will follow you to Jiangxi, Hubei,

even Guizhou even Guizhou



21 men are entering a ship to sail the sea

I can see them dance

Three of them from America, Caipirinha to drink

If I joined I would have a better chance



No matter where you might go

I will follow you, I will follow you

I will follow you to Brasil, Argentina

even Peru even Peru



21 men are entering a ship to sail the sea

They look very smart

Five of them from Russia, vodka in their bags

me I would have a pounding heart



No matter where you might go

I will follow you, I will follow you

I will follow you to Sibiria or Letland

Beleive me I will do

Beleive me I will do



21 men are entering a ship to sail the sea

one man is standing on the bay

I guess there's nothing left for me to say

one man is going here to stay



No matter where you may go

I will follow you, I will follow you
