Alba s touto skladbou:
Going Back,
In Japan,
Rare Earth,
EmIt was the third of September,
That day I'll always re
Ammember
'Cause that was the day that my daddy
Emdied
I
Emnever got a chance to see him
Never heard nothin' but bad
Amthings about him
Mama, I'm depending on you to tell me the
Emtruth.
CHORUS:(Recitativ)
And Mama just hung her head and said, "Son,
EmPapa was a rolling stone,
Wherever he laid his
Amhat was his home
And
Emwhen he died,
AmAll he left us was
Emalone".
Hey, Mama, is it true what they say
That Papa never worked a day in his life?
And Mama, some bad talk goin' around goin' around town
Sayin' that Papa had three outside children and another wife, and that ain't right
Hey, talk about Papa doing some storefront preaching
Talking about saving your soul, and all the time leaching
Dealing in debt and stealing in the name of the Lord
Mama, I'm depending on you to tell me the truth
CHORUS:
And Mama hung her head and said:
"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, 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 and steal to pay his bills
Folks say Papa wasn't much on thinkin'
Spent most of his life chasin' women and drinking
Mama, I'm depending on you to tell me the truth.
CHORUS:
And Mama looked up with a tear in her eye 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".
