Mama Tried - Merle Haggard (梅尔·哈格德)[00:00:00]
First thing I remember knowin' was a lonesome whistle blowin'[00:00:03]
And a young'uns dream of growin' up to ride[00:00:08]
On a freight train leavin' town not knowin' where I'm bound[00:00:13]
No one change my mind but Mama tried[00:00:18]
One and only rebel child from a family meek and mild[00:00:23]
My Mama seemed to know what lay in store[00:00:27]
Spite of all my Sunday learnin' toward the bad I kept on turnin'[00:00:32]
Till Mama couldn't hold me anymore[00:00:37]
I turned twenty-one in prison doin' life without parole[00:00:41]
No one could steer me right but Mama tried Mama tried[00:00:46]
Mama tried to raise me better but her pleading I denied[00:00:51]
That leaves only me to blame 'cause Mama tried[00:00:56]
Dear old Daddy rest his soul left my Mama a heavy load[00:01:22]
She tried so very hard to fill his shoes[00:01:27]
Workin' hours without rest wanted me to have the best[00:01:32]
She tried to raise me right but I refused[00:01:37]
I turned twenty-one in prison doin' life without parole[00:01:41]
No one could steer me right but Mama tried Mama tried[00:01:46]
Mama tried to raise me better but her pleading I denied[00:01:51]
That leaves only me to blame 'cause Mama tried[00:01:56]
