THE NEIGHBORHOOD ARCHIVE - All Things Mister Rogers

The Weekend Song

I'll be back, when the week is new
And I'll bring more ideas for you
And you'll have things you'll want to do
And I will, too.
I'll think of you when I'm not here
'Cause thinking of people makes them seem near.
The friends who know you love you cheerfully,
I do, too.

Notes

A variation of this song was used to close many episodes of Mister Rogers' Neighborhood:

I'll be back, when the day is new
And I'll have more ideas for you
And you'll have things you'll want to talk about
I will, too.

For the final episode of each weekly series, the lyrics were slightly adjusted:

I'll be back, when the week is new
And I'll have more ideas for you
And you'll have things you'll want to talk about
I will, too.

A variation of this song is used as the closing theme for Daniel Tiger's Neighborhood.
