"Papa Was a Rollin' Stone"

 

It was the third of September

That day I'll always remember, yes I will

'Cause that was the day that my daddy died

I never got a chance to see him

Never heard nothin' but bad things about him

Momma I'm depending on you to tell me the truth

Momma just hung her head and said, son

 

Papa was a rolling stone

Wherever he laid his hat was his home

And when he died, all he left us was alone

Papa was a rolling stone (my son, yeah)

Wherever he laid his hat was his home

And when he died, all he left us was alone

 

Hey Momma!

Is it true what they say that Papa never worked a day in his life

And Momma, some bad talk goin' round town sayin' that

Papa had three outside children

And another wife, and that ain't right

Heard some talk Papa doing some storefront preachin'

Talking about saving souls and all the time leechin'

Dealing in dirt, and stealing in the name of the Lord

Momma just hung her head and said

 

Papa was a rolling stone (my son)

Wherever he laid his hat was his home

And when he died, all he left us was alone

Hey Papa was a rolling stone (dad gumma it)

 Where ever he laid his hat was his home

And when he died, all he left us was alone

 

Hey Momma

I heard Papa called himself a jack-of-all-trades

Tell me is that what sent Papa to an early grave

Folks say Papa would beg, borrow, steal

To pay his bills

Hey Momma

Folks say Papa never was much on thinking

Spent most of his time chasing women and drinking

Momma I'm depending on you to tell me the truth

Momma looked up with a tear in her eye and said, son

 

Papa was a rolling stone (well, well, well, well)

Wherever he laid his hat was his home

And when he died, all he left us was alone (lone, lone, lone, alone)

Papa was a rolling stone

Wherever he laid his hat was his home

And when he died, all he left us was alone

 

(I said) Papa was a rolling stone (yes he was, my son)

Wherever he laid his hat was his home

And when he died, all he left us was alone

My daddy was Papa was a rolling stone (yes he was, yeah)

Wherever he laid his hat was his home)
