Rolling Stone
Papa was a rolling stone
Wherever he laid his hat was his home
And when he died
All he left us was alone
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
Papa was a rolling stone
Papa was a rolling stone
Papa was a-
Papa was a rolling stone
Papa was a rolling stone
Wherever he laid his hat was his home
And when he died
All he left us was alone (rolling stone)
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, oh
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, is it true what they say that
That Papa never worked a day in his life? (In his life, in his life)
And Mama, some bad talk goin' 'round town
Saying Papa had three outisde children and another wife
And that ain't right
And that ain't right
And that ain't-
Papa was a rolling stone
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
Papa was a rolling stone
Wherever he laid his hat was his home
And when he died
All he left us was alone
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
Papa was a rolling stone
Papa was a rolling stone
Papa was a-
Papa was a rolling stone
Papa was a rolling stone
Wherever he laid his hat was his home
And when he died
All he left us was alone (rolling stone)
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, oh
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, is it true what they say that
That Papa never worked a day in his life? (In his life, in his life)
And Mama, some bad talk goin' 'round town
Saying Papa had three outisde children and another wife
And that ain't right
And that ain't right
And that ain't-
Papa was a rolling stone
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
Papa was a rolling stone
