Lyrics

Papa was a rolling stone Wherever he laid his hat was his home And when he died All he left us was alone 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 nothing but bad things about him Mama, I'm depending on you to tell me the truth Papa was a rolling stone Papa was a rolling stone Papa was a- Papa was a rolling stone Papa was a rolling stone Wherever he laid his hat was his home And when he died All he left us was alone (rolling 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 nothing but bad things about him Mama, I'm depending on you to tell me the truth, oh Papa was a rolling 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 That Papa never worked a day in his life? (In his life, in his life) And Mama, some bad talk goin' 'round town Saying Papa had three outisde children and another wife And that ain't right And that ain't right And that ain't- Papa was a rolling stone 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 Papa was a rolling stone
