Mama Tried (妈妈的努力) (Bonus Track) - Brendan Dugan[00:00:00]
The first thing I remember knowing[00:00:12]
Was a lonesome whistle blowing[00:00:14]
And a young'uns dream of growin' up to ride[00:00:17]
On a freight train leavin' town not knowin' where I'm bound[00:00:22]
No one could change my mind but Mama tried[00:00:26]
One and only rebel child from a family meek and mild[00:00:31]
My Mama seemed to know what lay in store[00:00:36]
Spite of all my Sunday learning[00:00:41]
Toward the bad I kept on turning[00:00:43]
Till Mama couldn't hold me anymore[00:00:45]
I turned twenty-one in prison doin' life without parole[00:00:50]
No one could steer me right but Mama tried Mama tried[00:00:55]
Mama tried to raise me better but her pleading I denied[00:00:59]
That leaves only me to blame 'cause Mama tried[00:01:04]
Dear old Daddy rest his soul left my Ma a heavy load[00:01:19]
She tried so very hard to fill his shoes[00:01:23]
Workin' hours without rest wanted me to have the best[00:01:28]
She tried to raise me right but I refused[00:01:33]
I turned twenty-one in prison doin' life without parole[00:01:37]
No one could steer me right but Mama tried Mama tried[00:01:42]
Mama tried to raise me better but her pleading I denied[00:01:47]
That leaves only me to blame 'cause Mama tried[00:01:52]
