Loser's Way Home - Ballad of an Encyclopedia Salesman

You could see me trodden through sunshine, wind, or rain
No natural elements going to knock me off my terrain
I am single-minded, one objective to obtain
Going to get the money I deserve and start all over again
Most people do not envy the occupation at hand
When they see me coming, they hide the best they can
They shut off all the lights and lock up all the doors
Ignoring my knocks and pleas, they lie silent on the floor
Another day has come, a challenge now awaits
Will this be a good one? Or will the door be slammed in my face?
I won't give up trying because that's not who I am
And when this day is over, I'll just try it again
When my day is over, I come right home and rest
I'm welcomed by my wife and kids; it's the moment I love best
I put in many hours. I shudder just to think
That when tomorrow morning comes I am right back on the streets
The streets
Another day has come, a challenge now awaits
Will this be a good one? Or will the door be slammed in my face?
I won't give up trying because that's not who I am
And when this day is over, I'll just try it again
I'll do the best I can
With few mistakes
Just a moment of your time
Not a moment to waste
I promise not a minute to waste
Another day has come, a challenge now awaits
Will this be a good one? Or will the door be slammed in my face?
I won't give up trying because that's not who I am
And when this day is over, I'll just try it again
Cause when this day is over, I'll just try it again
