  • 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
    And 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
    Till Mama couldn't hold me anymore
    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
    '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
    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
    'Cause Mama tried
