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[00:00:09]
Of growing up to ride[00:00:10]
On a freight train leaving town[00:00:13]
Not knowing where I was bound[00:00:15]
No one could steer me right[00:00:17]
But mama tried[00:00:18]
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[00:00:33]
And I turned 21 in prison[00:00:37]
Doing life without parole[00:00:39]
No one could steer me right[00:00:41]
But mama tried mama tried[00:00:43]
Mama tried to raise me better[00:00:45]
But her pleading I denied[00:00:47]
That leaves no one but me to blame[00:00:49]
Cause mama tried[00:00:51]
Dear old daddy rest his soul[00:00:57]
Left my mom a heavy load[00:00:59]
She tried so very hard to fill his shoes[00:01:01]
Working hours without rest[00:01:05]
She wanted me to have the best[00:01:07]
Oh she tried to raise me right but I refused[00:01:09]
And I turned 21 in prison[00:01:13]
Doing life without parole[00:01:15]
No one could steer me right[00:01:17]
But mama tried mama tried[00:01:19]
Mama tried to raise me better[00:01:21]
But her pleading I denied[00:01:23]
That leaves no one but me to blame[00:01:26]
Cause mama tried[00:01:27]
And I turned 21 in prison[00:02:01]
Doing life without parole[00:02:04]
No one could steer me right[00:02:06]
But mama tried mama tried[00:02:08]
Mama tried to raise me better[00:02:10]
But her pleading I denied[00:02:12]
That leaves no one but me to blame[00:02:14]
Cause mama tried[00:02:16]
That leaves no one but me to blame[00:02:18]
Cause mama tried[00:02:20]
