[00:00.00] It was the third of September
[01:59.88]That day I'll always remember, yes I will
[02:04.83]'Cause that was the day that my daddy died
[02:13.29]I never got a chance to see him
[02:17.19]Never heard nothin' but bad things about him
[02:21.48]Mama I'm depending on you, to tell me the truth
[02:26.19]And Momma just hung her head and said
[02:28.32]"Son, Papa was a rolling stone.
[02:33.63]Wherever he laid his hat was his home
[02:37.20]And when he died all he left us was alone.
[02:45.39]Papa was a rolling stone, my son.
[02:49.56]Wherever he laid his hat was his home
[02:53.13]And when he died all he left us was alone."
[03:00.51]Well, well
[03:31.44]"Hey Mama, is it true what they say,
[03:34.65]That Papa never worked a day in his life?
[03:39.27]And Mama, some bad talk goin' round town
[03:42.72]Sayin' that Papa had three outside children and another wife,
[03:47.22]And that ain't right.
[03:49.29]Heard them talking Papa doing some store front preachin'
[03:53.34]Talked about saving souls and all the time leaching
[03:56.82]Dealing in debt, and stealing in the name of the Lord"
[04:02.85]Mama just hung her head and said
[04:04.77]" Papa was a rolling stone, my son
[04:09.33]Wherever he laid his hat was his home
[04:12.84]And when he died all he left us was alone.
[04:20.28]Hey, Papa was a rolling stone, my son.
[04:25.26]Wherever he laid his hat was his home
[04:28.80]And when he died all he left us was alone."
[04:34.95]Uh
[05:00.15]"Hey Mama, I heard Papa called himself a jack of all trades
[05:05.16]Tell me, is that what sent Papa to an early grave?
[05:09.30]Folks say Papa would beg, borrow, steal to pay his bills
[05:15.60]Hey Mama, folks say that Papa never was much on thinking
[05:21.36]Spent most of his time chasing women and drinking
[05:25.20]Mama I'm depending on you to tell me the truth"
[05:30.84]And Momma looked up with a tear in her eye and said
[05:32.91]"Son, Papa was a rolling stone
[05:35.58](Well, well, well, well)
[05:37.59]Wherever he laid his hat was his home
[05:41.13]And when he died all he left us was alone
[05:46.17]Lone, lone, lone, alone
[05:49.44]Papa was a rolling stone
[05:53.73]Wherever he laid his hat was his home
[05:57.30]And when he died all he left us was alone
[06:03.93]I said, Papa was a rolling stone, yes he was
[06:09.90]Wherever he laid his hat was his home
[06:13.50]And when he died all he left us was alone.."
[06:19.92]My daddy was
[06:21.87]Papa was a rolling stone
[06:27.15]Wherever he laid his hat was his home
