Riff continues through verseVerse 1It 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, 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 alone

Riff continues through verse Verse 2Hey Momma!
Is it true what they say that Papa never worked a day in his life
And Momma, some bad talk goin' round town sayin' that
Papa had three outside children
And another wife, and that ain't right
Heard some talk Papa doing some storefront preachin'
Talking about saving souls and all the time leechin'
Dealing in dirt, and 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---|----|----|----:||
Riff continues through verse Verse 3Folks 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
