She sits alone, an empty stare   A mother's face she wears   Where did she go wrong, the fight is gone   Lord help this broken home      Hey, mother, father, sister   Hey, come back, tryin', believin'   Hey, mother, father, dreamer      Don't you know that I'm alive for you   I'm your seventh son   And when lightin' strikes the family   Have faith, believe      With dreams he tried, lost his pride   He drinks his life away   One photograph, in broken glass   It should not end this way      Through bitter tears and wounded years   Those ties of blood were strong   So much to say, those yesterdays   So now don't you turn away      Hey, mother, father, sister   Hey, come back, tryin', believin'   Hey, mother, father, dreamer      Don't you know that I'm alive for you   I'm your seventh son   And when lightin' strikes the family   Have faith, believe      Don't you know that I'm alive for you   I'm your seventh son   And when lightin' strikes the family   Have faith, believe      Have faith, believe   Believe
