Papa Was A Rolling Stone

Papa Was A Rolling Stone - Le Freak

It was the third of September

That day I'll always remember

Yes I will

'Cause that was the day that my daddy died

Uh uh uh

I never got a chance to see him

Never heard nothin' but bad things about him

Mama I'm depending on you

Tell me the truth

Mama 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

Hey mama

Is it true what they say that

Papa never worked a day in his life

And mama bad talk goin' round town

Sayin' that papa had another wife

Heard them talking about papa doing some front store preachin'

Talked about saving souls and all the time leechin'

Dealing in debt and stealing in the name of the Lord

Mama said

Papa was a rolling stone

Wherever he laid his hat was his home

And when he died all he left us was alone

Oh yeah

Papa was a rolling stone

Wherever he laid his hat was his home

And when he died all he left us was alone

Mama keep saying

Papa was a rolling stone

Wherever he laid his hat was his home

And when he died all he left us was alone

Oh he left us was alone

Oh he left us was alone

Oh he left us was alone yeah
