Mama I Tried |
| You had big plans, I understand |
| You wanted more for me than you ever got from a man |
| Fancy dresses, big diamond rings |
| House full of babies and designer blue jeans |
| Mama I tried, Mama I tried |
| I cheated, and I lied |
| I painted up my face like a rodeo clown |
| And I choked on cheap perfume as I spread myself around |
| I strutted my stuff at every juke joint in town |
| Always a bridesmaid, never the bride |
| Mama, Mama I tried |
| I got so close so many times |
| Now I’ll never get back the best years of my life |
| Empty proposals, all talk no show |
| It’s gettin' too hard to keep holdin' on, now you’ve got to let it go |
| Mama I tried, Mama I tried |
| I cheated, and I lied |
| I painted up my face like a rodeo clown |
| And I choked on cheap perfume as I spread myself around |
| I strutted my stuff at every juke joint in town |
| Always a bridesmaid, never the bride |
| Mama, Mama I tried |
| Lord have mercy |
| Mama I tried, Mama I tried |
| I cheated, and I lied |
| I painted up my face like a rodeo clown |
| And I choked on cheap perfume as I spread myself around |
| I strutted my stuff at every juke joint in town |
| Always a bridesmaid, never the bride |
| Mama, Mama I tried |
| Goddammit, Mama I tried |
