Mama Tried - The Everly Brothers[00:00:00]

The first thing I remember knowin' was a lonesome whistle blowin'[00:00:09]

And a young'uns dream of growin' up to ride[00:00:14]

On a freight train leavin' town not knowin' where I'm bound[00:00:18]

And no one could change my mind but Mama tried[00:00:23]

One and only rebel child from a family meek and mild[00:00:28]

My Mama seemed to know what lay in store[00:00:33]

Spite of all my Sunday learnin' toward the bad I kept on turnin'[00:00:37]

Till Mama couldn't hold me anymore[00:00:42]

I turned twenty-one in prison doin' life without parole[00:00:46]

No one could steer me right but Mama tried Mama tried[00:00:52]

Mama tried to raise me better but her pleading I denied[00:00:56]

That leaves only me to blame 'cause Mama tried[00:01:01]

Dear old Daddy rest his soul left my Ma a heavy load[00:01:16]

She tried so very hard to fill his shoes[00:01:20]

Workin' hours without rest wanted me to have the best[00:01:25]

She tried to raise me right but I refused[00:01:30]

I turned twenty-one in prison doin' life without parole[00:01:34]

No one could steer me right but Mama tried Mama tried[00:01:39]

Mama tried to raise me better but her pleading I denied[00:01:44]

That leaves only me to blame 'cause Mama tried[00:01:48]
