lirik lagu mama tried (live in springfield, ma, september 3, 1980) – grateful dead
[verse 1]
the first thing i remember knowing
was a lonesome whistle blowing
and a young’un’s dream of growing up to ride
on a freight train leaving town
not knowing where i was bound
no one could steer my mind, but mama tried
one and only rebel child
from a family meek and mild
mama seemed to know what lay in store
in spite of all my sunday learning
towards the bad i kept on turning
’til mama couldn’t hold me anymore
[chorus]
and i turned twenty*one in prison doing life without parole
no one could steer me right, but mama tried, mama tried
mama tried to raise me better, but her pleading i dеnied
that leaves no onе but me to blame, ’cause mama tried
[verse 2]
dear old dad, rest his soul
left my mom a heavy load
she tried so very hard to fill his shoes
working hours without rest
wanted me to have the best
she tried to raise me right but i refused
[chorus]
and i turned twenty*one in prison doing life without parole
no one could steer me right, but mama tried, mama tried
mama tried to raise me better, but her pleading i denied
that leaves no one but me to blame, ’cause mama tried
[instrumental break]
[chorus]
and i turned twenty*one in prison doing life without parole
no one could steer me right, but mama tried, mama tried
mama tried to raise me better, but her pleading i denied
that leaves no one but me to blame, ’cause mama tried
[outro]
that leaves no one but me to blame, ’cause mama tried
