The Song
A tune originally recorded in 1961, “I Will Follow Him” was first rendered by Franck Pourcel. Initially, it was an instrumental titled “Chariot.” However, it gained its widest success and popularity through the recording of Little Peggy March in 1963.

The original “I Will Follow Him” instrumental was written by French composers Franck Pourcel and Paul Mauriat. It was then adapted by Arthur Altman and were given English lyrics by Norman Gimbel.

“I Will Follow Him” became a massively popular single in the ‘60s. Well, thanks to the 15-year-old Little Peggy March. It was then rendered by different artists from different genres. One of them was Ricky Nelson. This time, the word “him” was changed to “you.” Released in 1963, his version became a part of his album For Your Sweet Love.

Lyrics
I will follow you
Follow you wherever you may go
There isn't an ocean too deep
A mountain so high it can keep me away
I must follow you
Ever since you touched my hand I know
That near you I always must be
And nothing can keep you from me
You are my destiny
I love you, I love you, I love you
And where you go I'll follow, I'll follow, I'll follow
You'll always be my true love, my true love, my true love
From now until forever, forever, forever
I will follow you
Follow you wherever you may go
There isn't an ocean too deep
A mountain so high it can keep
Keep me away, away from my love
I love you, I love you, I love you
And where you go I'll follow, I'll follow, I'll follow
You'll always be my true love, my true love, my true love
From now until forever, forever, forever
I will follow you
Follow you wherever you may go
There isn't an ocean too deep
A mountain so high it can keep
Keep me away, away from my love
And where you go I'll follow
