Mama Tried Lyrics Artist(Band):Jack Ingram

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 And that leaves only me to blame, cause Mama tried If you find some error in Mama Tried Lyrics, would you please submit your corrections to me?
