We have loved playing "Mama Tried" this year! The audience seems to have a lot of sympathy for mom when Matt sings this for some reason.... ;)

The audio you hear in the outro is our Patreon community singing with us!!! And the pictures are from our last Patreon Reunion. Their support allows us to make these YouTube videos and take time out to write more original music. What a gift!

►LYRICS - Mama Tried
The first thing I remember knowin'
Was a lonesome whistle blowin'
And a young un's dream of growin' up to ride
On a freight train leavin' town
Not knowin' where I'm bound
No one could steer me right but Mama tried

One and only rebel child
From a family, meek and mild
And my Mama seemed to know what lay in store
Despite all my Sunday learnin'
Towards the bad, I kept on turnin'
Till Mama couldn't hold me anymore

And I turned twenty-one in prison
Doin' 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
He left my Mom a heavy load
She tried so very hard to fill his shoes
Workin' 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
Doin' 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 [x2]

I guess there's only me to blame
'Cause Mama tried
