Ferlin Husky Lyrics
"With Pen in Hand"

(Bobby Goldsboro)

With pen in hand you signed your name
Today at five I'll be on that train
And you'll be free and I will be alone so alone
If you think we can't find the love we once knew
If you think I can make everything up to you.

Then I'll be gone and you'll be on your own, you'll be on your own
Can take good care of Danny can you take him to school everyday
Can you teach him how to catch a fish
And keep all those bullys away, here what I say.

Can you teach him how to whistle a tune
Can you tell him about the Man in the Moon
If you can do these things then maybe he won't
Miss me, maybe he won't miss me.

And tonight as you lay in that big lonely bed
Can you look at the pillow where I laid my head
And with your heart on fire will you have no desire
To kiss me and hold me.

And if you can forget the good times we had
If you can think that the good times won't outweigh the bad
Then sign your name and I'll be on my way
I'll be on my way. hmm. hmm...
