"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 Mama, I'm depending 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. 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, mama! Is it true what they say that papa never worked a day in his life? And, mama, some bad talk goin' round town sayin' that papa had three outside children and another wife, And that ain't right Heard them talking papa doing some store front preachin' Talked about saving souls and all the time leechin' Dealing in debt and stealing in the name of the Lord Mama 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. Papa was a rolling stone. Wherever he laid his hat was his home. And when he died, all he left us was alone."
