Papa Was A Rolling Stone

歌詞

It was the third of September That day I'll always remember, yes I will 'Cause that was the day that my daddy died Never had a chance to see Never heard nothin' but bad things about him Mama, I'm depending on you to tell me the truth Mama just hung her head and said Papa was a rollin' stone Wherever he laid his hat was his home And when he died All he left us was alone Papa was a rollin' stone Wherever he laid his hat was his home And when he died All he left us was alone <♪> Hey, Mama, is it true what they say That Papa never worked a day in his life And Mama Some bad talk going around touwn sayin' that Papa had there outside children And another wife That ain't right Heard some talk about Papa and his storefront Preachin Talkin' about saving souls and all the time Leaching And dealing in dirt Stealin' in the name of the Lord Mama she just said Papa was a rollin' stone Wherever he laid his hat was his home And when he died All he left us was alone Now, listen to me Papa was a rollin' stone Wherever he laid his hat was his home And when he died All he left us was alone <♪> Hey, mama, I heard Papa call himself a jack of all trades. Tell me, is that what sent Papa to an early grave? Folks say Papa would beg, borrow or steal to pay his bills. Hey, Mama, folks say Papa was never much on thinkin' Spend most of his time chasin' women and drinkin'! Mama, I'm depending on you to tell me the truth. Mama just hung her head and said, Son Papa was a rollin' stone Wherever he laid his hat was his home And when he died All he left us was alone Papa was a rollin' stone Wherever he laid his hat was his home And when he died All he left us was alone Papa was a rollin' stone Wherever he laid his hat was his home And when he died All he left us was alone
