I'm Livin' In Shame - Diana Ross & The Supremes/The Supremes[00:00:00]

Mama was cookin' bread[00:00:17]

She wore a dirty raggedy scarf around her head[00:00:19]

Always had her stockings low[00:00:22]

Rolled to her feet just didn't know[00:00:24]

She wore a sloppy dress[00:00:27]

Oh no matter how she tried she always looked a mess[00:00:28]

Out of the pot she ate[00:00:33]

Never used a fork or a dinner plate[00:00:35]

I was always so afraid that[00:00:38]

The uptown friends would see her[00:00:40]

Afraid one day when I was grown[00:00:43]

That I would be her[00:00:45]

In college town away from here[00:00:51]

A new identity I found[00:00:54]

That I was born elite[00:00:57]

With maids and servants at my feet[00:00:58]

I must have been insane[00:01:01]

I lied and said mama died on a weekend trip to Spain[00:01:04]

She never got out of the house[00:01:08]

Never even boarded a train[00:01:10]

Married a guy was living high[00:01:13]

I didn't want him to know her[00:01:15]

She had a grandson two years old[00:01:17]

That I never even showed her[00:01:19]

I'm living in shame[00:01:22]

Mama I miss you[00:01:25]

I know you're not to blame[00:01:31]

Mama I miss you[00:01:34]

Got a telegram[00:01:55]

Mama passed away while making home made jam[00:01:57]

Before she died she cried to see me by her side[00:02:01]

She always did her best[00:02:05]

Ah cooked and cleaned and always in the same old dress[00:02:07]

Working hard down on her knees[00:02:12]

Always trying to please[00:02:14]

Mama mama mama can you hear me[00:02:17]

Mama mama mama can you hear me[00:02:21]

I'm living in shame[00:02:25]

Mama I miss you[00:02:28]

I know you've done your best[00:02:34]

Mama I miss you[00:02:37]

Won't you forgive me mama[00:02:42]

For all the wrong I've done[00:02:44]

I know you've done your best[00:02:47]

Oh I know you've done the very best you could[00:02:49]

Mama I thought you understood[00:02:53]

Working hard down on your knees[00:02:56]
