Marty Robbins - Mother Knows Best Lyrics
I left my home town
Turned a good woman down
Even laughed at my own Mother's plea
I pushed her aside
Even laughed when she cried
Now Mother knows best
Her love has stood the test
The records will prove it, you see
But youth's full of fire
Challenge and desire
Now I'm here in this penitentiary
I fell in you see with bad company
And I started in gamblin' for fun
Had been dealt and I'd lost
I backed up my play with a gun
Now Mother knows best
Her love has stood the test
The records will prove it, you see
I shot and I killed
For a twenty dollar bill
Now I'm here in this penitentiary

He was the best ever. I can listen to him everyday and all day long.
you're so right Zane he can sing anything and I still love to hear his music day and night
If you have talent you can sing anything, & this man had talent to spare, nothing he sings should surprise his true fans...
I never heard an intro to a song of Marty's like this before. I thought I must have hit on a song by Mac Wiseman, great tune.....
Blue Grass! Never knew he did that!
Many of Marty songs that were not recorded as bluegrass were done by others as bluegrass, ie the Sullivans doing "A little spot of heaven" or Danny Paisley doing "At the end of a long, lonely day."
A great song of the best country and western singer that lived on this earth,this is my personal meaning,but for me Marty is a great wonderful person who gave and give me somuch joy in my life.His songs alway's sounds great and I think this will come because of his great wonderful voice.His voice must be a truly gift from God.Every song he sang just sounded how it also was mend to be.There will never be an other Marty Robbins,but thanks to men like you Tarquin he will alway's be rememberd.Thanks
He was very talented*****
It's from one of his MCA albums 'Good 'n Country' granny.
