Look at the crowd up the avenue.
Oh, don't you know
where they're going to?
They're on their merry way
to turn night into day;
dressed in their best,
they're a happy mob,
soon, to a tune,
they'll be on the job.
If you care to join them,
just hurry along.

Follow the crowd, follow the crowd,
come with me, you're goin' to be so proud.
Don't stay behind, go where you'll find
thousands of dreamy Tango dancers.
Come, my honey, come!
The drummers drum, will make things hum!
The whole night long
we'll dance away the blues.
Take an extra pair of shoes!
Come, come, come,
Come and follow the crowd.

Follow the crowd, follow the crowd,
come with me, you're goin' to be so proud.
Don't stay behind, go where you'll find
thousands of dreamy Tango dancers.
Come, my honey, come!
The drummers drum, will make things hum!
The whole night long
we'll dance away the blues.
Take an extra pair of shoes!
Come, come, come,
Come and follow the crowd.

You'll hear a jew'l of an orchestra!
Best of the rest in America!
Each syncopated beat
just goes right to your feet.
Heirs, millionaires,
all the best of them,
glide, side by side,
with the rest of them;
they'll be glad to meet you,
just hurry along.

Follow the crowd, follow the crowd,
come with me, you're goin' to be so proud.
Don't stay behind, go where you'll find
thousands of dreamy Tango dancers.
Come, my honey, come!
The drummers drum, will make things hum!
The whole night long
we'll dance away the blues.
Take an extra pair of shoes!
Come, come, come,
Come and follow the crowd.

Follow the crowd, follow the crowd,
come with me, you're goin' to be so proud.
Don't stay behind, go where you'll find
thousands of dreamy Tango dancers.
Come, my honey, come!
The drummers drum, will make things hum!
The whole night long
we'll dance away the blues.
Take an extra pair of shoes!
Come, come, come,
Come and follow the crowd.
