Another Try - Live at The Sea View, Cayman Islands, 5/4/2002

Hey, daddy just lost his pay
What did he do it for?
It never made it through our door
He drank the whole week away

Now what can a family say?
There must be a better way
Mama, don't start to cry
Let's give him another try

Pick up the telephone
Tell him you want him home
To sit and watch the evenings pass
And reading the leaves of grass

I'm caught in a closing door
It's pinning me to the floor
Now mama, don't start to cry
Let's give him another try

I'm caught in a closing door
It's pinning me to the floor
Now, mama, don't start to cry
Let's give him another try

When we're old and gray
And the things we say are the things we really mean
So why cause a scene when things ain't what they seem?
'Cause the end result's the same

Now what can a family say?
There must be a better way
Now mama, don't start to cry
Let's give him another try

Thank you, thanks a lot
