Mama Tried (妈妈的努力) - Studio Musicians (工作室音乐家)[00:00:00]
The first thing I remember knowing [00:00:13]
Was a lonesome whistle blowing [00:00:15]
And a young un's dream of growing up to ride;[00:00:17]
On a freight train leaving town [00:00:22]
Not knowing where I'm bound [00:00:24]
No-one could change my mind but Mama tried [00:00:27]
One and only rebel child [00:00:31]
From a family meek and mild:[00:00:34]
My Mama seemed to know what lay in store [00:00:36]
Despite all my Sunday learning [00:00:40]
Towards the bad I kept on turning [00:00:43]
'Til Mama couldn't hold me anymore [00:00:45]
And I turned twenty-one[00:00:50]
In prison doing life without parole [00:00:51]
No-one could steer me right[00:00:55]
But Mama tried Mama tried [00:00:57]
Mama tried to raise me better [00:00:59]
But her pleading I denied [00:01:02]
That leaves only me to blame 'cos Mama tried [00:01:04]
Dear old Daddy rest his soul [00:01:18]
Left my Mom a heavy load;[00:01:20]
She tried so very hard to fill his shoes [00:01:22]
Working hours without rest [00:01:27]
Wanted me to have the best [00:01:29]
She tried to raise me right but I refused [00:01:32]
And I turned twenty-one[00:01:36]
In prison doing life without parole [00:01:37]
No-one could steer me right[00:01:41]
But Mama tried Mama tried [00:01:43]
Mama tried to raise me better [00:01:45]
But her pleading I denied [00:01:48]
That leaves only me to blame 'cos Mama tried[00:01:50]
