I recall hearing a DJ relay a story about Haggard's mother. After achieving success she was asked "Aren't you proud of you son for his accomplishment?" Her response can only be classified as one of a true honest mother. She said "I have 3 children and I'm proud of them all". A true mom if ever there was one!
I am glad that Merle’s mother lived long enough to see all the success that he had and the pardon that he received from Governor Reagan. Life in this cruel world is sweet - every once in awhile.
everyone has done wrong, some more then others. But if you want true honest music, then you need to give a listen to "MR. MERLE HAGARD"!!. He did it all, "right and wrong, paid his dues, paid for his mistakes and left us with some of the "GREATEST COUNTRY MUSIC".....there is or ever will be. If you doubt that....just give a listen to any brand of music today....God has him now and he is safe and at peace.....his last song will break your heart......"I'm tired of it all......we love you Merle.
Mr. Smith you said a mouth full , the likes of him are still running strong in his sons thank God . I used to work alone on the graveyard shift and would pop in the old eight track of Okie From Muskogee Live and play it loud , that was when I was a kid and I was country when country wasn't cool .
@@guynoir4733 yeah we all fall short of the glory of God (Romans 3:23kjv)... Most people think there good, the scriptures tells us no one is good, not one (psalm 14:1-3kjv)
Thank you both, Louis our Mother's watch over us! I was 23 year's old when I lost my Mother on Memorial Day 1980. I lost control of my life, today I am a better person....her death shook me! Stay Strong and Stay Well!
This concert was in Fresno, CA on 5/04/1984, Flossie Haggard, Merle's mother would pass away on 7/07/1984, just 64 days after this concert, that's his older sister Lillian sitting next to Merle's mother. It had to mean so much to Merle from that day forward!
My grandmother Nellie Evans and Merle’s grandmother Martha Villines were 1st cousins. Merle wrote a song about her, Grandma Harp Merle is my 3rd cousin I never did get a chance to meet him before his passing but enjoy his music every day !
was born in fresno 54...spent a teen year in bakersfield... and moved back (to clovis)...i was just a kid then, yes but if i were older, i could have partied with some of the best country singers on the planet!
Whoever gave this a thumbs down is not a country fan and please don’t consider yourself one. This is the greatest country singer that ever lived. Rip HAG.
Actually i could see people thumbs downing it ... it’s not exactly a song to dedicate to your mom lol!! She tolerated it but ... it’s not exactly a song Id be proud of either. Mama failed to save me....LMFAO But yes Haggard had more talent in his pinky than 90% of country artists that ever lived. He could do ANYTHING with his voice or with his instruments.
That certainly loved his Mama and he was an amazing man for sure I will always love Merle Haggard and his music. I miss him as well RIP Mr. Merle Haggard you were the greatest💖😢
I always think of my Mom when I hear this song. Our Dad left our Mom "with a heavy load" too... when he took his own life, Leaving Mom with his 4 mean ass boys to contend with. I have no memory of him, just stories and very few pics. He was a medic in the Korean war. He saw it all. If anyone is having suicidal thoughts , please get some help. Although they may not show it or say it, There are people in your life who need and love you and depend upon you. You can get past it. That's all I know to say.
Very touching. You could see she was both very proud (of her son) and a little embarressed and shy at the same time (for the standing ovation she got.) RIP Merle and Mama.
I loved it when he said momma you ready for your song and shrugged his shoulders and she smiled at him. Great love there. That's her baby boy no matter what now hes in heaven with both his parents whom he loved dearly. RIP merle.
It is wonderful that Merle's mother, who had to deal with so much trouble with her son in his younger years, got to live to an old age so that she could see the incredible success that her problem child went to have in his life - becoming the greatest country songwriter of all time. She must have been proud in the end.
I'll now smile hearing this knowing his mother succeeded in teaching him in the end and that the song really did have a happy ending. And that Mama got to see him perform this instead of passing away thinking she failed. RIP Merle. I'm sad you're gone but you'll never truly die
That was a great honor that was given to his beautiful Mom. She's a wonderful lady and you never stop loving your children ❤ no matter what. You can dislike what they do but you can't stop loving them. Merle was a super great singer and songwriter and is greatly missed 😍💙🙏oxoxox oxoxox oxoxox
Hi Leona How are you doing 🙏🙏😊😊 seems we have Merle Haggard heart 💓💓💓 both of us.sendme a messenger request.l am just honest and Love my Creator.... just honest and sincere, live in Canada no secrets hidden
Thanks😃🥰. Flossie is like my mom so I feel happy to see her smiling. I've made mistakes myself and she stuck with me. Merle and I are both blessed with wonderful mom's.
How beautiful to sing that too his mum, you could tell she was so very humble. Loved her little smiles, not wanting to take the limelight off her Son. ❤❤❤Merle ❤️❤️❤️
If "He Stopped Loving Her Today" is the best country song ever written then "Mama Tried" is definitely number 2. It might just be number 1 though! Merle was the best country ARTIST of all time.

Wow heart touching. Her smile to hag was so priceless. I know she was so proud if Merle. Never gave up on the hope in her son.seen nothing but true love
At 10 I waiting for my mom to come home from a 12 hour shift, to get my bday gift, then I realised that she had effd off out the country to start a new life on her own, left 5 kids with dad ,who took it all out on us all kicked out at 15 ,I got into drugs heroin path from early 90s till 5 yrs clean on father's day, I don't know country I played this just cos it came up,his story from what I gathered is a sad hard life that was turned into a good path, life ,music and his mum's in the front row ( to me I think he's luckier than most?) Took a wrong Rd in life,to life no parole by 21,pardoned,country great and mums in the front row 😢I'm jealous to be honest at 46 this had broken me,I had to get it together to write this❤so glad I played this and read comments ❤
Merle was a man of many hats and so glad he shared his life and music with us to live on forever, we miss you Hag everyday and all those golden voices of the real Country Music of the past but still live on in the future!!
That was SO very cool and "she's to blame for this whole evening".😆 That was great, and what an awesome performance from not only Merle with those runs, but that guitarist ripped UP that quick little solo.
I have Merle's autograph on a picture, I bought it about 4 years ago at a peddler's mall, $15 or $20. I was looking at his hands picking his guitar in this video thinking I am so glad that I rescued it. As with many good men, we are all complex, we get caught up doing very bad things in life, not because we wanted to, it was just a perfect storm in our path of life.
A proud mama if I ever saw one. She was very thankful of Merle's tribute song for her. But didn't want all the attention drawn to her though. But it was nice.
There's a few really talented youngsters but I can't help feel they're playing dressup in a way, getting old as made me jaded. Colter Wall out of Saskatchewan Canada sounds pretty darn good though
Still listening 2022. My mama is 95 and doing good. I thank God everyday she is still here. Mama tried and now I do everything for her. Love my mama. Love this song and awesome tribute to Merle beautiful mama.
Bill Anderson said Merle's mother was the nicest kindest woman he'd ever met. She was a pretty lady too. May she rest in eternal peace along with her much loved son.
In meiner frühen Jugend in 1950er Jahren hörte ich jeden Tag mit Begeisterung nachmittags auf AFN Munich Country- Musik. Jetzt mit 83 Jahren habe ich Merle Haggard entdeckt. Dafür bin ich dankbar. Seine Stimme und die Geschichte in seinen Liedern rühren an meine Seele und ich muß oft weinen. Merle Haggard on my mind. Ruhe in Frieden!
OMG had no idea this existed! Coolest thing ever. How great that Merle was able to give his mama her due while she was still here. Haggard was a genius musician, a class act and an American treasure!
What a amazing Man. Just think about this for a second. If Merle Haggard wasn't born. Scary thought. Thank you Momma Haggard for giving us the greatest Country music legend in the world and having the pleasure of listening to his music for decades.

Maybe I’m just poor White trash from West Virginia but this video brought me to tears. Being an ex convict who turned 21 in prison (thank God I wasn’t doing life) this song pulls on some strings I didnt know we’re even able to make a sound anymore. Mama Tried. She really did.

I saw Merle at Ft Worth about 6 months before he passed. At 79 yrs old, he played for a good hour. And I do mean PLAYED! He pulled out the banjo at one point! Impressive to say the least.
Then there were all the bikers amongst the crowd just waiting for that one idiot to bother Flossie... just to give that idiot a "talking to" out back...

I lost my daddy when I was 11 years old and my mom raised five kids on her own, she’s old school and doesn’t put up with any bullshit I love momma
Hi how are you doing today I hope you love this song right
When I was young, I couldn’t stand these songs. Now that I am old and have a life of bad decisions behind me, I finally get it.
How cool is that?!? Merle sang Mama Tried with his Mama right there in the front row.
I wonder if Johnny Cash ever performed with a boy named Sue in the audience.
That certainly loved his Mama and he was an amazing man for sure I will always love Merle Haggard and his music. I miss him as well RIP Mr. Merle Haggard you were the greatest💖😢
@@notsosilentbob yes! I wonder... That would have been awesome
I so happy she got to see everything worked out and though the song didn't have a happy ending we know it really did. I miss him RIP Merle

I always think of my Mom when I hear this song.
Our Dad left our Mom "with a heavy load" too... when he took his own life, Leaving Mom with his 4 mean ass boys to contend with.
I have no memory of him, just stories and very few pics.
He was a medic in the Korean war. He saw it all.

A beautiful lady for sure. Reminds me of my m om.
That's what a real mom does. Even when everyone else gives up on you. Your mom never will. No matter what. Love your mama
To his mom❤
It is wonderful thing to have a wayward child turn into a good person.
Ain't nobody can say they went from Quentin to singing to their Mama's like Merle did.❤️ That's a damn good man!
He made his mom the star after that song, that was sweet. She was so happy.
It is wonderful that Merle's mother, who had to deal with so much trouble with her son in his younger years, got to live to an old age so that she could see the incredible success that her problem child went to have in his life - becoming the greatest country songwriter of all time.

She must've been mortified by all the trouble he got into. At least she was faithful with his "Sunday learnin'."
❤️❤️❤️👋
My momma tried too
Great comment. I bet she prayed for him every day. My mom in law has prayed for her 3 boys every day of their lives.
the ugly truth what’s your excuse then?

This is one of my favorite Merle songs. Just Beautiful. Man this is Country Music!!!! Got a tear in my eye just watching this. Thanks Hill Billy.
His mother was so beautiful. I’m sure she was so proud of her loving son.

How does anyone dislike this? Golden age of country singers.
one of two reasons, they are completely ignorant or have no soul
Im not crying, You are. Who doesn't love their Momma ??
Hi how are you doing today I hope you love this song right so how is your day going today
Merle was a man of many hats and so glad he shared his life and music with us to live on forever, we miss you Hag everyday and all those golden voices of the real Country Music of the past but still live on in the future!!
My Dad and as a kid used to sit on back porch and sing along to Merle's records! Miss those days!
Haggard is and will always be an American musical treasure . He is one of a kind , original to the core .
His momma is all dressed up in her Sunday best! Bless her! Love it!!! ❤🥰
Met Merle Haggard and Mr Roy Nichols in March 1973 in Chicago IL. Met Mrs. Haggard later that year as she was on Marty Haggard's tour in Harrison, AR.
That was SO very cool and "she's to blame for this whole evening".😆
That was great, and what an awesome performance from not only Merle with those runs, but that guitarist ripped UP that quick little solo.
That "guitarist" is the one and only Roy Nichols!
This is what country music and its people are all about.

A proud mama if I ever saw one. She was very thankful of Merle's tribute song for her. But didn't want all the attention drawn to her though. But it was nice.
Made me think of my Nan. Couldn't help shedding a tear to this one. Beautiful.
THE BEST HANDS DOWN!!
Love it all! None of these "modern-day" country artists can even compare to the older ones: Charley Pride, Merle Haggard, Porter Wagoner, etc.,etc.!
Chris Stapleton can and does compare. You don't have to tear one down to raise up the other.
There's a few really talented youngsters but I can't help feel they're playing dressup in a way, getting old as made me jaded. Colter Wall out of Saskatchewan Canada sounds pretty darn good though
They aint no songs like this anymore.
