Mama

Sorry if there aren't images. My biggest problem with getting more words up here was the time it takes to do pictures.


If there's not a picture, please try to play anyway. :-)

"And I turned twenty-one in prison doing life without parole.
No-one could steer me right but Mama tried, Mama tried.

(Merle Haggard, "Mama Tried")

(Heh! My hubby would be impressed that an oldie-but-goodie Merle Haggard song is the first one that came to mind!!)

Mama don't let your babies grow up to be cowboys
Don't let em pick guitars and drive them old trucks
Make em be doctors and lawyers and stuff

But Mama gets married and married and married
And never gets carried away

Mama just killed a man
Put a gun against his head
Pulled my trigger, now he's dead

Mama told me not to come
Mama told me not to come
She said "That's not the way to have fun, son"

Mama's talkin' loud.
Mama's doin' fine.
Mama's gettin' hot.
Mama's goin' stong.
Mama's movin' on.
Mama's all alone.
Mama doesn't care.
Mama's lettin' loose.
Mama's got the stuff.
Mama's lettin' go.

("Rose's Turn", from "Gypsy", by Jule Styne & Stephen Sondheim)

Thanks, Sally, for the inspiration!

My mama told me,
If I was goody,
That she would buy me,
A rubber dolly,
My aunty told her,
I kissed a soldier,
Now she won't buy me,
A rubber dolly

And it's all because
Your mama won't dance and
Your daddy won't rock and roll.

Mama don't allow no banjo playing here.
Mams don't allow no banjo playing here.
But we don't care what mama won't allow;
We'll play banjos anyhow.

--Bluegrass song
