Mama Tried - Grateful Dead[00:00:00]
The first I remember knowing[00:00:05]
Was that lonesome whistle blowing[00:00:07]
And a youngun's dream of growing up to ride[00:00:09]
On a freight train leaving town[00:00:13]
Not knowing where I was bound[00:00:15]
No one could steer me right but mama tried[00:00:17]
Was the only rebel child[00:00:21]
From a family meek and mild[00:00:23]
Mama seemed to know what lay in store[00:00:25]
In spite of all my Sunday learning[00:00:29]
For the bad I kept on turning[00:00:31]
And mama couldn't hold me anymore[00:00:34]
And I turned 21 in prison[00:00:38]
Doing life without parole[00:00:40]
No one could steer me right but mama tried mama tried[00:00:42]
Mama tried to raise me better[00:00:46]
But her pleading I denied[00:00:48]
That leaves no one but me to blame cause mama tried[00:00:50]
Dear old daddy rest his soul[00:00:59]
Left my mom a heavy load[00:01:01]
She tried so very hard to fill his shoes[00:01:03]
Working hours without rest[00:01:07]
Wanted me to have the best[00:01:09]
Oh she tried to raise me right but I refused[00:01:11]
And I turned 21 in prison[00:01:15]
Doing life without parole[00:01:17]
No one could steer me right but mama tried mama tried[00:01:20]
Mama tried to raise me better[00:01:24]
But her pleading I denied[00:01:26]
That leaves no one but me to blame cause mama tried[00:01:28]
And I turned 21 in prison[00:02:05]
Doing life without parole[00:02:07]
No one could steer me right[00:02:10]
But mama tried mama tried[00:02:11]
Mama tried to raise me better[00:02:14]
But her pleading I denied[00:02:16]
That leaves no one but me[00:02:18]
To blame cause mama tried[00:02:19]
That leaves no one but me to[00:02:22]
Blame cause mama tried[00:02:23]
