paroles de chanson Mama Tried - Joan Baez
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'm
bound,
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
learning,
Towards
the
bad,
I
kept
on
turning.
'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.
That
leaves
only
me
to
blame
'cos
Mama
tried.
Instrumental
break.
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,
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.
That
leaves
only
me
to
blame
'cos
Mama
tried.
