Intro

 He smiled and rubbed the stubble on his chin

 He sure showed signs of weariness

 And dreariness of life that's growing thin

 Yet he didn't have so very far to go

 With a pencil in his hand he will travel on as planned

 Where the mist up in the mountains threw a light [?]

Craise Finton Kirk, see him go, on his way

Oh they don't know where he is

Very very nice, very very nice

Even in the morning when he slept

Something good is missing

 There's nothing very much to talk about

 And nothing very much to see

Craise Finton Kirk, see him go, on his way

Oh they don't know where he is

Very very nice, very very nice

Talks about the place he'd like to go

 And you never see the worrying

 And hurrying and that makes a person slow

 Yet you wouldn't think he'd be so hard to find

 Yet he looks so very busy but there's nothing on his mind

 And his wavy hair continues not to grow

Craise Finton Kirk, see him go, on his way

Oh they don't know where he is

Very very nice, very very nice

[no chord]

Craise Finton Kirk, see him go, on his way

[no chord]

Oh they don't know where he is

 [no chord]

Very very nice, very very nice
