Starting over Again - The Dollyrots

Momma moved out, Daddy sold the house

They split up the money and went on their way

And all the king’s horses and all the king’s men

Couldn’t put Mommy and Daddy back together again

Starting over again

Where should they begin?

Because they’ve never been out on their own

Starting over again

Where do you begin?

When your dreams are all shattered

And the kids are all grown

And the whole world cries

Got an apartment, she moved in with her sisters

He’s scheming big deals with one of his friends

While she sits at home just sorting out pieces

Of left over memories from thirty odd years

Starting over again

Where do you begin

You’ve never been out on your own

Starting over again

Never any end

What will the neighbors say?

They’re talking talk

It’s small town news

Facing fifty years old

Breaking up a happy home

And this far down the road

You find yourself alone

Two fools

Starting over again

Now where do you begin

When you’ve never been out on your own

Starting over again

Never any end

When your dreams are all shattered

And the kids are all grown

And all the king’s horses and all the king’s men

Could never put Mommy and Daddy back together

Back together, again
