TRY AGAIN * (daughter) Father I just can't make it, I'm much too short and the bars too high (father) Lift your head up child and concentrate , and give it a try (other children) Give it another try Give it another try (daughter) Father I just can't do this , it's much too hard and I don't know how (father) Pull yourself together , use your head and work it out (croud) You can work it out You can work it out (father) How you ever gonna learn what you don't know How you ever gonna see if you don't go How will you ever Oh if you never How can you succeed unless you try Father I just can't make it Try again Father I just can't make it Try again....oh child get up and try again *special thanks to my lovely daughters Nancy E.

Hi Danny, I think this is Very Nice Indeed! Love the Daughter and Father theme going on! Great idea for a song and very emotionally impact in the voices of you and your lovely daugthers! I used to tell my kids when they were young to don't say you can't! You can do anything you put your mind to. I did not do that but I have three kids that are multitalented and wonderful blessings as adults! Blessings good friend, Ellen
