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 nothing but bad things about him

Mama I'm depending on you to tell me the truth

Mama 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 a loan

Papa was a rolling stone my son

Wherever he laid his hat was his home

And when he died

All he left us was a loan well well

Hey Mama is it true what they say

That Papa never worked a day in his life

And Mama some bad talk going around town

Saying that Papa had three outside children

And another wife and that ain't right

I heard some talk about Papa

Doing some store front preaching

Talking about saving souls

And all the time leeching

Dealing in debt and stealing

In the name of the Lord

Mama just hung her head and said

Papa was a rolling stone my son

Wherever he laid his hat was his home

And when he died

All he left us was a loan

Hey Papa was a rolling stone

Wherever he laid his hat was his home

And when he died

All he left us was a loan
