[00:22.73] |
It was the third of Septemberthat day I'll always remember |
[00:31.68] |
'Cause that was the day that my daddy died |
[00:39.62] |
I never got a chance to see him |
[00:43.54] |
Never heard nothin' but bad things about him |
[00:47.32] |
Mama I'm depending on you to tell me the truth |
[00:52.63] |
Mama just looked at him and said, "Son |
[00:54.43] |
Papa was a rollin' stone |
[00:59.22] |
Wherever he laid his hat was his home |
[01:02.89] |
And when his died |
[01:04.54] |
All he left us was alone." x2 |
[01:22.54] |
|
[01:24.56] |
Hey Mama, is it true what they say, |
[01:27.14] |
that Papa never worked a day in his life? |
[01:31.56] |
And Mama, bad talk going around town |
[01:34.91] |
saying that Papa had three outside children and another wife. |
[01:39.52] |
And that ain't right. |
[01:41.17] |
HEARD SOME talk about Papa doing some store front preaching. |
[01:45.12] |
TalkIN about saving souls and all the time leeching. |
[01:48.45] |
Dealing in debt and stealing in the name of the Lord. |
[01:54.11] |
Mama just hung her head and said, |
[01:55.97] |
"Papa was a rolling stone, my son. |
[02:00.12] |
Wherever he laid his hat was his home. |
[02:04.23] |
(And when he died) All he left us was ALONE." |
[02:11.61] |
"Hey, Papa was a rolling stone. |
[02:15.73] |
Wherever he laid his hat was his home. |
[02:19.29] |
(And when he died) All he left us was ALONE." |
[02:25.94] |
Hey Mama, I heard Papa call himself a jack of all trade. |
[02:30.99] |
Tell me is that what sent Papa to an early grave? |
[02:34.86] |
Folk say Papa would beg, borrow, steal to pay his bill. |
[02:40.61] |
Hey Mama, folk say that Papa was never much on thinking. |
[02:46.01] |
Spent most of his time chasing women and drinking. |
[02:49.73] |
Mama, I'm depending on you to tell me the truth. |
[02:55.98] |
Mama just hung her head and said, |
[02:57.66] |
"Son, Papa was a rolling stone. |
[03:01.77] |
Wherever he laid his hat was his home. |
[03:04.49] |
(And when he died) All he left us was ALONE." |
[03:12.31] |
"Papa was a rolling stone. |
[03:16.38] |
Wherever he laid his hat was his home. |
[03:20.06] |
(And when he died) All he left us was ALONE." x2 |
