The Supremes - I`m Livin` In Shame слова песни
(Pam Sawyer/R. Dean Taylor/Frank Wilson/Berry Gordy/Henry Cosby) Mom was cooking breadShe wore a dirty raggety scarf around her headAlways had her stockings low, rolled to her feetShe just didn`t knowShe wore a sloppy dressOh, no matter how she tried, she always looked a messOut of the pot she ate, never used a fork or a dinner plateI was always so afraid for my uptown friends to see herAfraid one day when I was grown, that I would be herAh, in a college townAway from home a new identity I foundSaid I was born elite, with maids and servants at my feetI must have been insaneI lied and said momma died on a weekend trip to SpainShe never got out of the house, never even boarded a trainMarried a guy, was living highI didn`t want him to know herShe a grandson, two years oldThat I never even showed herI`m living in shameMomma I miss youI know you`re not to blameMomma I miss youCame a telegramMomma passed away while making homemade jamBefore she died, she cried to see me by her sideShe always did her bestAh, cooking, cleaning, always in the same old dressWorking hard down on her kneesAlways trying to pleaseMomma, momma, momma can you hear me?Momma, momma, momma can you hear me?I`m living in shame, momma I miss youI know you`ve done you`re bestMomma I miss youWon`t you forgive me mom?For all the wrong I`ve doneI know you`ve done your bestOh, I know you`ve done your very best you couldBut I`m never understoodWorking hard down on her knees...
