Another Try (Live Version)

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

And what can a family say

There must be a better way

Now mama don't start to cry

Let's give him another tryPick up the telephone

Tell him you want him home

To sit and watch the evenings pass

And readin' the Leaves of GrassI'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 tryI'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
