| [00:05.090] |
|
| [00:13.540] |
The first thing I remember |
| [00:15.190] |
Knowin was a |
| [00:16.710] |
Lonesome whistle blowin |
| [00:18.360] |
And a younguns dream |
| [00:19.340] |
|
| [00:19.980] |
Of growin up to ride |
| [00:22.200] |
|
| [00:23.090] |
On a freight train leavin town |
| [00:24.780] |
|
| [00:25.480] |
Not knowin where Im bound |
| [00:27.030] |
|
| [00:28.060] |
No one could change |
| [00:29.260] |
My mind but mama tried |
| [00:30.620] |
|
| [00:32.440] |
One and only rebel child |
| [00:34.140] |
|
| [00:35.110] |
From a family meek and mild |
| [00:36.530] |
|
| [00:37.880] |
My mama seemed to to |
| [00:39.590] |
Know what lay in store |
| [00:41.630] |
|
| [00:42.320] |
Spite all my Sunday learnin |
| [00:43.620] |
|
| [00:44.570] |
Towards the bad |
| [00:45.530] |
I kept on turnin |
| [00:46.490] |
|
| [00:47.050] |
Til mama couldn't |
| [00:48.200] |
Hold me anymore |
| [00:49.720] |
|
| [00:51.660] |
I turned twenty-one in prison |
| [00:54.340] |
Doin life without parole |
| [00:55.550] |
|
| [00:57.300] |
No one could steer me right |
| [00:59.160] |
But mama tried mama tried |
| [01:01.100] |
Mama tried to raise me better |
| [01:03.300] |
|
| [01:03.860] |
But her pleading I denied |
| [01:05.320] |
|
| [01:06.060] |
That leaves only me to blame |
| [01:08.260] |
'Cause mama tried |
| [01:09.000] |
|
| [01:13.450] |
Dear ole daddy rest his |
| [01:14.950] |
Soul left my mom a heavy load |
| [01:17.280] |
|
| [01:18.100] |
She tried so very hard |
| [01:19.820] |
To feel his shoes |
| [01:20.840] |
|
| [01:22.640] |
Workin hours without rest |
| [01:24.270] |
|
| [01:24.810] |
Wanted me to have the best |
| [01:26.650] |
|
| [01:27.750] |
She tried to raise me |
| [01:29.190] |
Right but I refused |
| [01:30.670] |
|
| [01:32.120] |
I turned twenty-one in prison |
| [01:34.560] |
Doin life without parole |
| [01:36.350] |
|
| [01:38.370] |
No one could steer me right |
| [01:40.380] |
But mama tried mama tried |
| [01:41.840] |
Mama tried to raise me better |
| [01:43.630] |
|
| [01:44.550] |
But her pleading I denied |
| [01:45.930] |
|
| [01:46.780] |
And that leaves only me to blame |
| [01:49.010] |
'Cause mama tried |
| [01:49.870] |
|
| [01:51.260] |
And that leaves only me to blame |
| [01:53.480] |
'Cause mama tried |
