Papa Was a Rolling Stone - United Soul Brothers & Sisters
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 tell me the truth
And 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 bad talk going around town
Saying that Papa had three
Outside children and another wife
And that ain't right
Heard some talk about Papa
Doing some store front preaching
Talk about saving souls
And all the time leeching
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
Hey 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 I heard Papa call
Himself a jack of all trade
Tell me is that what sent
Papa to an early grave
Folk say Papa would beg
Borrow steal to pay his bill
Hey Mama folk say that
Papa was never much on thinking
Spent most of his time
Chasing women and drinking
Mama I'm depending on
You to tell me the truth
Mama looked up with a
Tear in her eye and said
Son Papa was a rolling stone
Well well well well
Wherever he laid his hat was his home
And when he died
All he left us was alone
I said
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
Wherever he laid his hat was his home
And when he died All he left us was alone
