Mama Tried (妈妈的努力) - Grateful Dead (感恩而死)[00:00:00]

Written by：Merle Haggard[00:00:01]

The first thing I remember knowing[00:00:06]

Was a lonesome whistle blowing[00:00:09]

And a young un's dream of growing up to ride[00:00:11]

On a freight train leaving town[00:00:16]

Not knowing where I'm bound[00:00:19]

No-one could change my mind but Mama tried[00:00:21]

One and only rebel child[00:00:26]

From a family meek and mild[00:00:29]

My Mama seemed to know what lay in store[00:00:31]

Despite my Sunday learning[00:00:36]

Towards the bad I kept turning[00:00:38]

'Til Mama couldn't hold me anymore[00:00:41]

And I turned twenty-one in prison doing life without parole[00:00:46]

No-one could steer me right but Mama tried Mama tried[00:00:51]

Mama tried to raise me better[00:00:56]

But her pleading I denied[00:00:58]

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

Dear old Daddy rest his soul[00:01:11]

Left my Mom a heavy load[00:01:14]

She tried so very hard to fill his shoes[00:01:17]

Working hours without rest[00:01:21]

Wanted me to have the best[00:01:24]

She tried to raise me right but I refused[00:01:26]

I turned twenty-one in prison doing life without parole[00:01:31]

No-one could steer me right but Mama tried Mama tried[00:01:37]

Mama tried to raise me better[00:01:41]

But her pleading I denied[00:01:44]

That leaves only me to blame 'cause Mama tried[00:01:46]

I turned twenty-one in prison doing life without parole[00:02:11]

No-one could steer me right but Mama tried Mama tried[00:02:17]

Mama tried to raise me better[00:02:22]

But her pleading I denied[00:02:24]

That leaves only me to blame 'cause Mama tried[00:02:27]

That leaves only me to blame 'cause Mama tried[00:02:32]
