[00:11.60]The first thing I remember knowing
[00:14.30]Was a lonesome whistle blowing
[00:16.50]And a young un's dream of growing up to ride
[00:21.46]On a freight train leaving town
[00:23.91]Not knowing where I'm bound
[00:26.37]No one could change my mind Mama tried
[00:31.10]One and only rebel child
[00:33.63]From a family meek and mild
[00:35.65]My Mama seemed to know what lay in store
[00:40.79]Despite my Sunday learning
[00:43.35]Towards the bad I kept turning
[00:45.71]Til Mama couldn't hold me anymore
[00:50.23]And I turned twenty one in prion doing life without parole
[00:55.52]No one could steer me right Mama tried Mama tried
[00:59.97][01:48.44]Mama tried to raise me better but her pleading I denied
[01:04.93][01:53.42]That leaves only me to blame cause Mama tried
[01:19.48]Dear old daddy rest his soul
[01:21.88]Left my Mom a heavy load
[01:24.38]She tried so very hard to fill his shoes
[01:29.09]Working hours without rest
[01:31.75]Wanted me to have the best
[01:34.51]She tried to raise me right but I refused
[01:38.69]I turned twenty one in prison doing life without parole
[01:44.01]No one could steer me right mama tried Mama tried
