Mama Tried (Live at the Spectrum, Philadelphia 4/6/82) - Grateful Dead (感恩而死)

The first I remember knowing

Was that lonesome whistle blowing

And a youngun's dream

Of growing up to ride

On a freight train leaving town

Not knowing where I was bound

No one could steer me right

But mama tried

Was the only rebel child

From a family meek and mild

Mama seemed to know what lay in store

In spite of all my Sunday learning

For the bad I kept on turning

And mama couldn't hold me anymore

And I turned 21 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

Dear old daddy rest his soul

Left my mom a heavy load

She tried so very hard to fill his shoes

Working hours without rest

She wanted me to have the best

Oh she tried to raise me right but I refused

And I turned 21 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

And I turned 21 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

That leaves no one but me to blame

Cause mama tried
