Make ends meet

Hush now baby, close your eyes
Mama can't tuck you in tonight
She doesn't ever wanna be away
That's just what it takes to make it through the day

Save those tears, dry your eyes
It's just one more day in paradise

(chorus)
Tryin' to make ends meet, I'm so
Tired of being alive and never living
We're born and we're dyin' free
But in between
We're only tryin to make ends meet

Hush now baby, go to sleep
Daddy's workin late at the factory
He really wanted to be there for you
But daddy's gotta do what a man's gotta do

Hold those tears don't you cry
It's just another night in paradise

(chorus)

Hold those tears don't you cry
It's just another night in paradise

(chorus)

Mama can't tuck you in, dadys workin' late again
They're just tryin to make it
Tryin to make ends meet
