Mama Tried [Live In Springfield, MA, September 3, 1980] - Grateful Dead

[Verse 1]
The first i remember knowing was that lonesome whistle blowing
And a youngin'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

[Chorus]
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

[Verse 2]
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
Oh she tried to raise me right, but i refused

[Chorus][x2]
