"Come Follow Me (To the Redwood Tree) " is an
English languagenursery rhyme and a popular
children's song. It can be an "ask a question" nursery song. Asking where shall thee follow.
Lyrics
The most common modern version is often sung as a
round for four
voice parts. A possible arrangement for
SATB is as follows:
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.
Where shall I follow, follow,
To the redwood, to the redwood, to the redwood, redwood tree.
The text above is often sung multiple times in succession to allow for the different voices to interweave with each other, forming
four-part harmony.
Pop Culture
The song was featured in an animated insert on
Sesame Street, in which the three turtle kids teach their Uncle Edgar (the banjo playing turtle) about
round singing).[1]
