[Instrumental Intro]

[Verse 1]
He smiled and rubbed the stubble on his chin
His shoes 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
With the mist up in the mountain through a light

[Chorus]
Craise Finton Kirk, see him go on his way
Oh, they don't know where he is
Very, very nice, very, very nice

[Verse 2]
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

[Chorus]
Craise Finton Kirk, see him go on his way
Oh, they don't know where he is
Very, very nice, very, very nice
[Verse 3]
Talks about the place he'd like to go
And you never see the worrying
Or hurrying 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

[Chorus]
Craise Finton Kirk, see him go on his way
Oh, they don't know where he is
Very, very nice, very, very nice

[Chorus]
Craise Finton Kirk, see him go on his way
Oh, they don't know where he is
Very, very nice, very, very nice
