Mama Tried (妈妈的努力) - Leon Copeland[00:00:00]

First thing I remember knowin' was a lonesome whistle blowin'[00:00:11]

And a young'uns dream of growin' up to ride[00:00:16]

On a freight train leavin' town, not knowin' where I'm bound[00:00:20]

And no one could change my mind, but Mama tried[00:00:25]

One and only rebel child from a family meek and mild[00:00:29]

My Mama seemed to know what lay in store[00:00:34]

Spite of all my Sunday learnin', toward the bad I kept on turnin'[00:00:38]

Till Mama couldn't hold me anymore[00:00:43]

I turned twenty-one in prison doin' life without parole[00:00:47]

No one could steer me right, but Mama tried, Mama tried[00:00:52]

Mama tried to raise me better, but her pleading I denied[00:00:56]

That leaves only me to blame 'cause Mama tried[00:01:01]

Dear old Daddy rest his soul left my Mama a heavy load[00:01:14]

She tried so very hard to fill his shoes[00:01:19]

Workin' hours without rest, wanted me to have the best[00:01:23]

She tried to raise me right but I refused[00:01:28]

I turned twenty-one in prison doin' life without parole[00:01:32]

No one could steer me right, but Mama tried, Mama tried[00:01:37]

Mama tried to raise me better, but her pleading I denied[00:01:41]

That leaves only me to blame 'cause Mama tried[00:01:45]
