  • Queen Papa Was A Rollin' Stone Lyrics

           

    (As recorded by the Temptations)
    NORMAN WHITFIELD
    BARRETT STRONG

    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
    Mama I'm depending on you, to tell me the truth
    Mama just hung her head and said son

    Papa was a rollin' stone, wherever he laid his hat was his home
    And when he died, all he left us was alone, oh
    Papa was a rollin' stone, (my son yeah) wherever he laid his hat was his home
    And when he died, all he left us was alone, well well

    Hey mama, is it true what they say that papa never worked a day in his life
    And mama, some bad talk goin' around town sayin' that papa had three outside children
    And another wife... and that ain't right
    Heard some talk about papa doin' some store front preachin'
    Talkin' about savin' souls and all the time leechin', dealin' in dirt
    And stealin' in the name of the Lord
    Mama just hung her head and said

    Papa was a rollin' stone, (my son) wherever he laid his hat was his home
    And when he died, all he left us was alone
    Hey, papa was a rollin' stone, (dadgummit) wherever he laid his hat was his home
    And when he died, all he left us was alone, ooh

    Hey mama, I heard papa call 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
    Hey mama, folks say papa never was much on thinkin'
    Spent most of his time chasin' women and drinkin'
    Mama I'm depending on you to tell me the truth
    Mama looked up with a tear in her eye and said son

    Papa was a rollin' stone, (well, well, well, well) wherever he laid his hat was his home
    And when he died, all he left us was alone, alone, alone, alone, alone
    Papa was a rollin' stone, (uh huh) wherever he laid his hat was his home
    And when he died, all he left us was alone, I said

    Papa was a rollin' stone, (yes he was now) wherever he laid his hat was his home
    And when he died, all he left us was alone.
