|Dm7---|----|----|----|Verse 1*Riff A continues through verse
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
I 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, sonChorus 1Dm7Papa 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
Wherever he laid his hat was his home
And when he died, all he left us was aloneRiff A||:Dm7---|----|----|----:||Verse 2*Riff A continues through verse 
Hey Momma!
Is it true what they say that Papa never worked a day 
.........in his life.
And Momma, bad talk goin' round 
Papa had three little children
By another wife  that ain't right
Bad talk about Papa doing storefront preachin'
Talking about saving souls all the time leechin'
Dealing in dirt, stealing in the name of the LordChorus 2Dm7Papa was a rolling stone
Wherever he laid his hat was his home
And when he died, all he left us was alone
Hey Papa was a rolling stone
Where ever he laid his hat was his home
And when he died, all he left us was aloneSax Solo||:Dm7---|----|----|----:||Verse 3*Riff A continues through verse 
Folks said papa was a jack-of-all-trades
That sent Papa to an early grave
Folks say Papa would beg, borrow, steal
To pay........ his debts
Folks say Papa never was much on thinking
Spent most of his time chasing women and drinking
Momma I'm depending on you to tell me the truthChorus 3Dm7Papa 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
Wherever he laid his hat was his home
And when he died, all he left us was aloneKeys solo||:Dm7---|----|----|----:||Guitar solo||:Dm7---|----|----|----:|| Chorus 4Dm7Papa 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
Wherever he laid his hat was his home
And when he died, all he left us was alone
