文本歌词

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 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 a loan
Papa was a rolling stone my son
Wherever he laid his hat was his home
(And when he died)
All he left us was a loan " well well
Hey Mama is it true what they say
That Papa never worked a day in his life
And Mama some bad talk going around town
Saying that Papa had three outside children
And another wife and that ain't right
I heard some talk about Papa
Doing some store front preaching
Talking 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 a loan
Hey Papa was a rolling stone
Wherever he laid his hat was his home
(And when he died)
All he left us was a loan"
