Lyrics Papa Was A Rolling Stone (45 edit)

It was the third of september that day I'll always remember

Yes I will 'cos that was the day that my daddy died

I never got a chance to see him never heard nothin' but bad things about him

Mama I'm dependin' on you to tell me the truth

Mama 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

Oh 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 well well

Hey mama is it true what they say that papa never worked a day in his life

And mama some bad talk all around town sayin' papa had three outside children

And another wife and that ain't right

Heard some talk about papa doin' some storefront preachin' talkin' 'bout savin' souls an' all the time leechin'

Dealin' in dirt and stealin' in the name of the Lord

Mama just hung her head and said

My 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 gummit wherever he laid his hat was his home

And when he died all he left us was alone
