Old Pen

I met an old man
I said, "Tell me your story"
He took out an old pen
And wrote somethin' for me

Then he kept walking on down the road
And I watched him disappear like smoke
And I thought I'd just seen a ghost
Then I looked down at what he'd wrote

It said, "Son, when you grow up, you'll be fine
I know, you've got questions on your mind
Life is gonna happen one way or the other
Whether you like it or not
Stop looking for the answers, and you'll find
What you've got"

Hmm-hmm-hmm-hmm-hmm

I met a young man
Searchin' for glory
I took out an old pen
And wrote him my story

Then I kept walking on down the road
When your time is up, it's time to go
I pray he reads what's on the note
And takes to heart what I wrote

I said, "Son, when you grow up, you'll be fine
I know, you've got questions on your mind
Life is gonna happen one way or the other
Whether you like it or not
Stop looking for the answers, and you'll find
What you've got"

When you grow up, you'll be fine
I know, you've got questions on your mind
Life is gonna happen one way or the other
Whether you like it or not
Stop looking for the answers, and you'll find
What you've got
