[00:00:00] Papa Was A Rollin' Stone - The Undisputed Truth

[00:00:03] Written by：Norman Whitfield/Barrett Strong

[00:00:31] It was the third of September

[00:00:35] That day I'll always remember yes I will

[00:00:40] 'Cause that was the day my daddy died

[00:00:49] I never got a chance to see him

[00:00:53] Never heard nothin' but bad things about him

[00:00:57] Mama I'm depending on you to tell me the truth

[00:01:03] And mama just hung her head and said son

[00:01:05] Papa was a rolling stone

[00:01:09] Wherever he laid his hat was his home

[00:01:13] And when he died

[00:01:15] All he left us was alone

[00:01:20] Hey mama is it true what they say

[00:01:24] That papa never worked a day in his life

[00:01:28] And mama some bad talk going around town

[00:01:31] Saying that papa had three outside children and another wife

[00:01:35] And that ain't right

[00:01:38] Heard some talk about papa doing some storefront preaching

[00:01:42] Talking about saving your souls

[00:01:44] And all the time leeching

[00:01:46] Dealing in debt and stealing in the name of the lord

[00:01:50] Mama just hung her head and said

[00:01:54] Papa was a rolling stone

[00:01:58] Wherever he laid his hat was his home

[00:02:02] And when he died

[00:02:04] All he left us was alone

[00:02:25] Mama mama I heard papa called himself a jack of all trades

[00:02:31] Tell me is that what sent papa to an early grave

[00:02:35] Folks say papa would beg borrow or steal to pay his bills

[00:02:43] Folks say papa was never much on thinkin'

[00:02:48] Spent most of his time chasin' women and drinkin'

[00:02:52] Mama I'm depending on you to tell me the truth

[00:02:57] With a tear in her eye and said son

[00:03:00] Papa was a rolling stone

[00:03:04] Wherever he laid his hat was his home

[00:03:08] And when he died

[00:03:10] All he left us was alone

[00:03:16] Papa was a rolling stone
