Turn the Pencil
My children were drawing some pictures
And each had a pencil and pad
And I could hear Christy tell Jimmy
In words that he'd understand
Now, this is our house, see the windows
Now, you draw the sun in the sky
But, when they drew mommy and daddy
Little christy started to cry
She said 'turn the pencil over
Erase the sun from the sky
Now, this is a cloud, see, it's raining
These are tears in mommy's eyes
So, turn the pencil over
I guess it's time to begin
To erase him out of the picture
Daddy's gone again
Inst
I picked up both of my babies
And I got them ready for bed
Then I picked up those pencils and papers
And remembered what Christy had said
She said, 'turn the pencil over
Erase the sun from the sky
Now, this is a cloud, see, it's raining
These are tears in mommy's eyes
So turn the pencil over
I guess it's time to begin
To erase him out of the picture
Daddy's gone again
So, erase him out of the picture
Daddy's gone again
And each had a pencil and pad
And I could hear Christy tell Jimmy
In words that he'd understand
Now, this is our house, see the windows
Now, you draw the sun in the sky
But, when they drew mommy and daddy
Little christy started to cry
She said 'turn the pencil over
Erase the sun from the sky
Now, this is a cloud, see, it's raining
These are tears in mommy's eyes
So, turn the pencil over
I guess it's time to begin
To erase him out of the picture
Daddy's gone again
Inst
I picked up both of my babies
And I got them ready for bed
Then I picked up those pencils and papers
And remembered what Christy had said
She said, 'turn the pencil over
Erase the sun from the sky
Now, this is a cloud, see, it's raining
These are tears in mommy's eyes
So turn the pencil over
I guess it's time to begin
To erase him out of the picture
Daddy's gone again
So, erase him out of the picture
Daddy's gone again
