George Michael - Papa Was a Rolling Stone lyrics
[George Michael - Papa Was a Rolling Stone lyrics]
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 nothin' but bad things about him
Momma, I'm depending on you to
Tell me the truth
Momma hung her head and said
Papa was a rolling stone
Where ever 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
Hey momma, is it true what they say
That papa never worked a day in his life?
And momma
There's some bad talk goin' 'round town
That papa had three outside
Children and another wife
Heard some talk about papa doing
Some store front preachin'
Talked about saving souls and
All the time leaching dealing in debt
Stealing in the name of the law
Momma hung her head and said
Papa was a rolling stone
Wherever he laid his hat was his home
And when he died, all he left us was alone
Son, papa was a rolling stone, yeah
You know it
Wherever he laid his hat was his home
And when he died, all he left us was alone
Oh yeah come on, tell me, hey momma
I heard papa called himself a
Jack of all trades tell me is that what sent
Papa to an early grave
Folks say papa would beg, borrow, steal
To pay his bills
Folks say papa never was much on thinking
Spent most of his time
Chasing women and drinking
Momma, I'm depending on you to
Tell me the truth papa was a rolling stone
Wherever he laid his hat was his home
And when he died, all he left us was alone
You know, 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, yeah, you know it
Wherever he laid his hat was his home
And when he died, all he left us was alone
Hey, you know how much you owe
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
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 nothin' but bad things about him
Momma, I'm depending on you to
Tell me the truth
Momma hung her head and said
Papa was a rolling stone
Where ever 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
Hey momma, is it true what they say
