Nothin' ventured, nothin' gained  His old time dentures pitted and coffee stained  Drove a milk truck for an outfit called Dairy Time  Till the cobwebs filled and clouded his mind    Something borrowed, something blue  Rest assured her love was always true  They raised their Sons in a place called Tomales Bay  Then melanoma came and took her away    He doesn't worry but will often pine  TheTBiggest obstacle is passin time  He sold his house and bought a big old wood trawler  Now he drags the ocean to earn a square dollar    Nothin' ventured, nothin' gained  The salty air helps to fade the pain  A simple man with a simple wish  Affable seas and an occasional load of fish    Nothin' ventured, nothin' gained  Every now and then  Yer gonna get slapped with a slab of rain  Nothin' ventured, nothin' gained  Some die and leave their mark  Some just a stain    Nothin' ventured nothin' gained...
