Lyrics and translation Grateful Dead - Mama Tried (Live Fillmore East, New York, NY, April 26, 1971)




Mama Tried (Live Fillmore East, New York, NY, April 26, 1971)
Maman a essayé (Live Fillmore East, New York, NY, 26 avril 1971)
The first I remember knowin'
La première chose dont je me souviens
Was that lonesome whistle blowin'
C'était ce sifflet solitaire qui sifflait
And a youngin's dream
Et le rêve d'un jeune
Of growin' up to ride
De grandir pour monter
On a freight train leavin' town
Dans un train de marchandises quittant la ville
Not knowin' where I was bound
Ne sachant pas j'allais
No one could steer me right
Personne ne pouvait me mettre sur la bonne voie
But mama tried
Mais maman a essayé
Was the only rebel child
J'étais l'unique enfant rebelle
From a family meek and mild
D'une famille douce et gentille
Mama seemed to know
Maman semblait savoir
What lay in store
Ce qui m'attendait
In spite of all my
Malgré tout ce que j'avais
Sunday learnin'
Appris le dimanche
For the bad I kept on turnin'
Pour le mal, j'ai continué à tourner
And mama couldn't hold me anymore
Et maman ne pouvait plus me retenir
And I turned 21 in prison
Et j'ai eu 21 ans en prison
Doin' life without parole
Faisant ma vie sans libération conditionnelle
No one could steer me right
Personne ne pouvait me mettre sur la bonne voie
But mama tried, mama tried
Mais maman a essayé, maman a essayé
Mama tried to raise me better
Maman a essayé de m'élever mieux
But her pleadin' I denied
Mais ses supplications, je les ai refusées
That leaves no one but me to blame
Cela ne laisse personne à blâmer que moi
'Cause mama tried
Parce que maman a essayé
Dear old daddy rest his soul
Mon cher vieux papa, que son âme repose en paix
Left my mom a heavy load
A laissé à ma mère un lourd fardeau
She tried so very hard
Elle a essayé très fort
To fill his shoes
De remplir ses chaussures
Workin' hours without rest
Travaillant des heures sans repos
Wanted me to have the best
Voulait que j'aie le meilleur
Oh, she tried to raise me right
Oh, elle a essayé de m'élever correctement
But I refused
Mais j'ai refusé
And I turned 21 in prison
Et j'ai eu 21 ans en prison
Doin' life without parole
Faisant ma vie sans libération conditionnelle
No one could steer me right
Personne ne pouvait me mettre sur la bonne voie
But mama tried, mama tried
Mais maman a essayé, maman a essayé
Mama tried to raise me better
Maman a essayé de m'élever mieux
But her pleadin' I denied
Mais ses supplications, je les ai refusées
That leaves no one but me to blame
Cela ne laisse personne à blâmer que moi
'Cause mama tried
Parce que maman a essayé
And I turned 21 in prison
Et j'ai eu 21 ans en prison
Doin' life without parole
Faisant ma vie sans libération conditionnelle
No one could steer me right
Personne ne pouvait me mettre sur la bonne voie
But mama tried, mama tried
Mais maman a essayé, maman a essayé
Mama tried to raise me better
Maman a essayé de m'élever mieux
But her pleadin' I denied
Mais ses supplications, je les ai refusées
That leaves no one but me to blame
Cela ne laisse personne à blâmer que moi
'Cause mama tried
Parce que maman a essayé
That leaves no one but me to blame
Cela ne laisse personne à blâmer que moi
'Cause mama tried
Parce que maman a essayé
