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 just hung her head and said, son
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 my son, yeah
Wherever he laid his hat was his home
And when he died all he left us was alone
Well, well
Hey momma
Is it true what they say that papa never worked a day, in his life
Folks say papa never was much on thinking
Spent most of his time chasing women and drinking
Papa was a rolling stone my son
Wherever he laid his hat was his home
And when he died all he left us was alone
Papa was a rolling stone my son, yeah
Wherever he laid his hat was his home
And when he died all he left us was alone
Well, well
Papa was a rolling stone my son
Wherever he laid his hat was his home
And when he died all he left us was alone
Papa was a rolling stone my son, yeah
Wherever he laid his hat was his home
And when he died all he left us was alone
Well, well
