Lyrics

[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
