Mama is also a strong women but her love for Walter made her lost the way. This shows in this quote, “Walter—What you ain’t never understood is that I ain’t got nothing, don’t own nothing, ain’t never really wanted nothing that wasn’t for you. There ain’t nothing as precious to me…There ain’t nothing worth holding on to, money, dreams, nothing else—if it means—if it means it’s going to destroy my boy.” P. 106 Walter begin drink, wonder around the town and not working just like a homeless man.

This art is related to Mama, of the up and down side of her. Nothing in the world is more important then her family and their proud of being black. After she saw Walter's reaction after losing $6500 she was horrified, she saw her son was about to give up the his proud of being black, the proud that their family hold for generations. Walter called Lindner that he was to sell the house and accept that they black people don't have the privilege to live in the neighborhood, this is the down side. After Lindner came, Walter change, his speech was totally difference from what he did in front of Mama, and this made Mam realize that her son is a man, he still got the proud in him.

What is a Mother?

by Anonymous

A mother is someone who loves you
Who cares for you in every way
She sits down and listens
to what you have to say

She always thinks your beautiful
Never puts you down
She always has a smile
To wipe away your frown

A mother is someone who believes in you

Always pushes you to go far
Tells you to believe in yourself
No matter who you are

A mother is like an angel
Although without the wings
She tells you to enjoy
Life's most smallest things

I really love my mother
She means so much to me
Mommy I really love you
And that's how it always will be.

Mama Tried

Merle Haggard

The first thing I remember knowin'
Was a lonesome whistle blowin'
And a young un's dream of growin' up to ride
On a freight train leavin' town
Not knowin' where I'm bound
And no one could change my mind but Mama tried
One and only rebel child
From a family, meek and mild
My Mama seemed to know what lay in store
Despite all my Sunday learnin'
Towards the bad, I kept on turnin'
'Til Mama couldn't hold me anymore

And I turned twenty-one in prison doin' life without parole
No one could steer me right but Mama tried, Mama tried
Mama tried to raise me better, but her pleading, I denied
That leaves only me to blame 'cause Mama tried

Dear old Daddy, rest his soul
Left my Mom a heavy load
She tried so very hard to fill his shoes
Workin' hours without rest
Wanted me to have the best
She tried to raise me right but I refused

And I turned twenty-one in prison doin' life without parole
No one could steer me right but Mama tried, Mama tried
Mama tried to raise me better, but her pleading, I denied
That leaves only me to blame 'cause Mama tried

The song Mama tried is related to Mama and Walter about how Mama tries to convince Walter to not use the money for liquor store because they are no business people, in the song it says, "And no one could change my mind but Mama tried." This line of the song shows how Walter feels after the lost of the money he used for his dream, he noticed many times that his Mama tries to stop him but he didn't listen and now all he can feel is sorry for Mama and his family. After all he has done, Mama still loves him even if nobody does anymore.
