(Bobby Bare - Don Bowman)

Will anybody know I've been here when I'm gone
Will anything that I've done here live on
Every man's allowed just so much time
And all you take along is what you leave behind.

Will anybody know I've been here when I'm gone
When I'm gone, when I'm gone
Oh, will anybody know I've been here
When I'm gone?

Will anybody cry just a little bit when I'm gone
Will anybody cry just a little bit when I'm gone
Will the things I've tried so hopefully
All turn to dust alongside of me?

Will anybody know I've been here when I'm gone
When I'm gone, when I'm gone
Oh, will anybody know I've been here
When I'm gone?

Will anybody think about me when I'm gone
Will anybody ever remember me when I'm gone
Will they call me failure or success
Did I really live or just exist?

Will anybody know I've been here when I'm gone
When I'm gone when I'm gone
Oh, will anybody know I've been here
When I'm gone?

Will anybody know I've been here, when I'm gone?
