[04:01.95] It was the third of September.
[04:05.75] That day I'll always remember, yes I will.
[04:10.57] 'Cause that was the day that my daddy died.
[04:19.27] I never got a chance to see him.
[04:23.21] Never heard nothing but bad things about him.
[04:27.26] Mama, I'm depending on you, tell me the truth.
[04:29.31]
[04:32.93] "Son, Papa was a rolling stone.
[04:33.00] And Mama just hung her head and said,
[04:38.14] Wherever he laid his hat was his home.
[04:43.29] (And when he died) All he left us was ALONE."
[04:51.38] "Papa was a rolling stone, my son.
[04:55.72] Wherever he laid his hat was his home.
[04:58.95] (And when he died) All he left us was ALONE."
[05:01.20]
[05:07.09] Well, well.
[05:09.61]
[05:38.17] Hey Mama, is it true what they say,
[05:41.15] that Papa never worked a day in his life?
[05:47.04] And Mama, bad talk going around town
[05:49.79] saying that Papa had three outside children and another wife.
[05:52.03] And that ain't right.
[05:56.19] HEARD SOME talk about Papa doing some store front preaching.
[05:59.88] TalkIN about saving souls and all the time leeching.
[06:03.48] Dealing in debt and stealing in the name of the Lord.
[06:05.24]
[06:11.66] Mama just hung her head and said,
[06:14.21] "Papa was a rolling stone, my son.
[06:16.09] Wherever he laid his hat was his home.
[06:19.64] (And when he died) All he left us was ALONE."
[06:27.14] "Hey, Papa was a rolling stone.
[06:31.93] Wherever he laid his hat was his home.
[06:35.58] (And when he died) All he left us was ALONE."
[06:39.73]
[06:43.29] Uh!
[06:44.70]
[09:56.11] Hey Mama, I heard Papa call himself a jack of all trade.
[10:00.80] Tell me is that what sent Papa to an early grave?
[10:05.14] Folk say Papa would beg, borrow, steal to pay his bill.
[10:11.47] Hey Mama, folk say that Papa was never much on thinking.
[10:17.18] Spent most of his time chasing women and drinking.
[10:21.07] Mama, I'm depending on you to tell me the truth. Mama looked up with a tear in her eye and said,
[10:26.78] "Son, Papa was a rolling stone. (Well, well, well, well)
[10:33.38] Wherever he laid his hat was his home.
[10:36.84] (And when he died) All he left us was ALONE."
[10:45.38] "Papa was a rolling stone.
[10:48.97] Wherever he laid his hat was his home.
[10:53.09] (And when he died) All he left us was ALONE."
[10:55.41]
[11:00.09] "I said, Papa was a rolling stone. Wherever he laid his hat was his home.
[11:09.07] (And when he died) All he left us was ALONE."
