[00:00:00] Mama Tried (In the Style of Merle Haggard) (Demo Vocal Version) - ProSource Karaoke (专业卡拉ok)

[00:00:12] The first thing I remember knowing

[00:00:14] Was a lonesome whistle blowing

[00:00:16] And a young un's dream of growing up to ride;

[00:00:21] On a freight train leaving town

[00:00:24] And Not knowing where I'm bound and

[00:00:26] No one could change my mind but Mama tried

[00:00:30] One and only rebel child

[00:00:33] From a family meek and mild:

[00:00:35] My Mama seemed to know what lay in store

[00:00:39] Despite all my Sunday learning

[00:00:42] Towards the bad I kept on turning

[00:00:44] Til Mama couldn't hold me anymore

[00:00:49] And I turned twenty-one in prison

[00:00:51] Doing life without parole

[00:00:54] No-one could steer me right but Mama tried

[00:00:57] Mama tried

[00:00:58] Mama tried to raise me better but her pleading

[00:01:02] I denied

[00:01:03] That leaves only me to blame cos Mama tried

[00:01:17] Dear old Daddy rest his soul

[00:01:19] Left my Mom a heavy load;

[00:01:21] She tried so very hard to fill his shoes

[00:01:26] Working hours without rest

[00:01:28] Wanted me to have the best

[00:01:31] She tried to raise me right but I refused

[00:01:35] And I turned twenty-one in prison

[00:01:37] Doing life without parole

[00:01:40] No one could steer me right but Mama tried

[00:01:43] Mama tried

[00:01:44] Mama tried to raise me better but her pleading

[00:01:48] I denied

[00:01:49] That leaves only me to blame cos Mama tried
