Papa Was A Rolling Stone - 熊山 (웅산)
Lyrics by:Norman Whitfield/Barrett Strong
Composed by: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 had a chance to see
Never heard nothin' but bad things about him
Momma I'm depending on you to tell me the truth
Momma hurl her head and said
Papa was a rolling stone
Wherever he led his hat was his home
And when he died all he left us was alone
Papa was a rolling stone
Wherever he led 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
Mmmm
There's some bad talk on that one town sayin' that
Papa had three outside children
And another wife
Heard some talk about papa doing some storefront preachin'
Talking about saving souls and all the time leechin'
Dealing in dirt and stealing in the name of the Lord
Momma hurl her head and say
Papa was a rolling stone
Wherever he led his hat was his home
And when he died all he left us was alone
Papa was a rolling stone
Wherever he led his hat was his home
And when he died all he left us was alone
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 or steal
To pay his bills
Folks say papa was never much on thinking
Spent most of his time chasing women and drinking
Momma I'm depending on you to tell me the truth
Momma hurl her head and said
Papa was a rolling stone
Wherever he led his hat was his home
And when he died all he left us was alone
Papa was a rolling stone
Wherever he led his hat was his home
And when he died all he left us was alone
Papa was a rolling stone
Wherever he led his hat was his home
And when he died all he left us was alone
Papa was a rolling stone
Hey hey hey
Wherever he led his hat was his home
And when he died all he left us was alone
Yeah yeah hey hey hey hey hey
And when he died all he left us was alone
Papa was a rolling stone
Hey hey hey
Wherever he led his hat was his home
And when he died all he left us was alone
Papa was a rolling stone
