《Mama Tried(Live at Hartford Civic Center， October 14， 1983)》歌词

[00:00:05] The first I remember knowing

[00:00:08] Was that lonesome whistle blowing

[00:00:11] And a youngin's dream

[00:00:12] Of growing up to ride

[00:00:15] On a freight train leaving town

[00:00:18] Not knowing where I was bound

[00:00:21] No one could steer me right

[00:00:23] But mama tried

[00:00:25] Was the only rebel child

[00:00:28] From a family meek and mild

[00:00:31] Mama seemed to know

[00:00:33] What lay in store

[00:00:36] In spite of all my Sunday learning

[00:00:38] For the bad I kept on turning

[00:00:41] And mama couldn't hold me anymore

[00:00:45] And I turned twenty-one in prison

[00:00:48] Doing life without parole

[00:00:51] No one could steer me right

[00:00:53] But mama tried mama tried

[00:00:56] Mama tried to raise me better

[00:00:58] But her pleading I denied

[00:01:01] That leaves no one but me to blame

[00:01:03] Cause mama tried

[00:01:11] Dear old daddy rest his soul

[00:01:14] Left my mom a heavy load

[00:01:17] She tried so very hard

[00:01:18] To fill his shoes

[00:01:21] Working hours without rest

[00:01:24] Wanted me to have the best

[00:01:27] Oh she tried to raise me right

[00:01:28] But I refused

[00:01:31] And I turned twenty-one in prison

[00:01:34] Doing life without parole

[00:01:37] No one could steer me right

[00:01:39] But mama tried mama tried

[00:01:41] Mama tried to raise me better

[00:01:44] But her pleading I denied

[00:01:47] That leaves no one but me to blame

[00:01:49] Cause mama tried

[00:02:12] And I turned twenty-one in prison

[00:02:14] Doing life without parole

[00:02:17] No one could steer me right

[00:02:19] But mama tried mama tried

[00:02:22] Mama tried to raise me better

[00:02:24] But her pleading I denied

[00:02:27] That leaves no one but me to blame

[00:02:30] Cause mama tried

[00:02:32] That leaves no one but me to blame

[00:02:34] Cause mama tried
