Rhonda Vincent - Mama Tried - Live şarkı sözleri

Sanatçı: Rhonda Vincent

albüm: Live at The Ryman


The first thing I remember knowin'
Was a lonesome whistle blowin'
And a youngin's dream of growin' up to ride
On a freight train leavin' town
Not knowin' where I'm bound
And no one could change my mind, but Mama tried
One and only rebel child
From a family meek and mild
My Mama seemed to know what lay in store
Despite all my Sunday learnin'
Towards the bad I kept on turnin'
'Til Mama couldn't hold me anymore
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
And that leaves only me to blame, 'cause Mama tried
Dear ol' Daddy 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
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
And that leaves only me to blame, 'cause Mama tried
