《I’m Livin’ In Shame(Version 1)》歌词

[00:00:00] I'm Livin' In Shame (Version 1) - Diana Ross & The Supremes

[00:00:00] Written by：Richard Dea

[00:00:14] Mama was cooking bread

[00:00:16] She wore a dirty raggedy

[00:00:17] Scarf around her head

[00:00:19] Always had her stockings low

[00:00:21] Rolled to her feet

[00:00:22] Just didn't know

[00:00:24] She wore a sloppy dress

[00:00:25] Oh no matter how she tried

[00:00:28] She always looked a mess

[00:00:30] Out of the pot she ate

[00:00:32] Never used a fork

[00:00:33] Or a dinner plate

[00:00:35] I was always so afraid that

[00:00:37] My uptown friends would see her

[00:00:40] Afraid one day when I was grown

[00:00:42] That I would be her

[00:00:48] In college town away from her

[00:00:50] A new identity I found

[00:00:53] That I was born elite

[00:00:55] With maids and servants

[00:00:56] At my feet

[00:00:58] I must have been insane

[00:01:01] I lied and said mama died on

[00:01:03] A weekend trip to Spain

[00:01:05] She never got out of the house

[00:01:07] Never even boarded a train

[00:01:10] Married a guy

[00:01:11] Was living high

[00:01:11] I didn't want him to know her

[00:01:14] She had a grandson two years old

[00:01:16] That I never even showed her

[00:01:18] I'm living in shame

[00:01:22] Mama I miss you

[00:01:27] I know you're not to blame

[00:01:31] Mama I miss you

[00:01:56] Came a telegram

[00:01:58] Mama passed away while

[00:01:59] Making home made jam

[00:02:02] Before she died she cried

[00:02:04] To see me by her side

[00:02:06] She always did her best

[00:02:08] Ah cooked and cleaned

[00:02:10] And always in the same old dress

[00:02:13] Oh

[00:02:13] Working hard

[00:02:14] Down on her knees

[00:02:16] Always trying to please

[00:02:18] Mama mama

[00:02:21] Mama can you hear me

[00:02:23] Mama mama

[00:02:25] Mama can you hear me

[00:02:27] I know you've done your best

[00:02:30] Mama I miss you

[00:02:35] I'm living in shame

[00:02:39] Mama I miss you

[00:02:44] Won't you forgive me mama

[00:02:46] For all the wrong I've done

[00:02:48] I know you've done your best

[00:02:51] Oh I know you've done

[00:02:52] The very best you could

[00:02:55] But never

[00:02:57] Mama I thought you understood

[00:02:58] Working hard

[00:02:59] Down on your knees

[00:03:00] Mama you were

[00:03:01] Always trying to please

[00:03:03] You are so good to me

[00:03:06] Mama I miss you

[00:03:10] Won't you forgive me mama

[00:03:12] For all the wrong I've done

[00:03:14] I know you've done your best

[00:03:17] Oh I know you've done

[00:03:19] The very best you could

[00:03:21] I never understood

[00:03:23] Mama I miss you
