I'm Livin' In Shame - The Supremes[00:00:00]

Mom was cookin' bread[00:00:15]

She wore a dirty raggedy scarf around her head[00:00:16]

Always had her stockings low[00:00:20]

Rolled to her feet she just didn't know[00:00:21]

She wore a sloppy dress[00:00:24]

Oh no matter how she tried she always looked a mess[00:00:26]

Out of the pot she ate[00:00:31]

Never used a fork or a dinner plate[00:00:32]

I was always so afraid[00:00:36]

For my uptown friends to see her[00:00:38]

Afraid one day when I was grown[00:00:40]

That I would be her[00:00:42]

In a college town[00:00:48]

Away from home a new identity I found[00:00:51]

Said I was born elite[00:00:54]

With maids and servants at my feet[00:00:57]

I must have been insane[00:00:59]

I lied and said mama died on a weekend trip to Spain[00:01:02]

She never got out of the house[00:01:06]

Never even boarded a train[00:01:08]

Married a guy was livin' high[00:01:11]

I didn't want him to know her[00:01:13]

She had a grandson two years old[00:01:15]

That I never even showed her[00:01:17]

I'm livin' in shame[00:01:19]

Mama I miss you[00:01:23]

I know you're not to blame[00:01:28]

Mama I miss you[00:01:32]

Came a telegram[00:01:53]

Mama passed away while making homemade jam[00:01:54]

Before she died[00:01:58]

She cried to see me by her side[00:01:59]

She always did her best[00:02:02]

Oh cooked and cleaned and always in the same old dress[00:02:04]

Workin' hard down on her knees[00:02:10]

Always tryin' to please[00:02:11]

Mama mama mama can you hear me [00:02:14]

Mama mama mama can you hear me [00:02:19]

I'm livin' in shame[00:02:23]

Mama I miss you[00:02:26]

I know you've done your best[00:02:32]

Mama I miss you[00:02:34]

Won't you forgive me mom[00:02:40]

For all the wrong I've done [00:02:42]

I know you've done your best[00:02:44]

I know you've done the very best you could[00:02:46]

But I never understood[00:02:51]

Workin' hard down on your knees[00:02:53]
