The Lyrics: The next stop that we make will be England, Tell all the folks in Russia, and China, too.
Why: I'm surprised this #1 song (1973) for The O'Jays written by Kenny Gamble & Leon Huff isn't up here, yet. Above is the first verse of the song, where the country of England, Russia and China, too, are all mentioned.
