Papa Was a Rollin' Stone (爸爸是浪子) - The Temptations (诱惑演唱组)
Written by:Barrett Strong/Norman Whitfield
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 nothin' 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 alone
Papa was a rolling stone my son
Wherever he laid his hat was his home
And when he died all he left us was alone
Hey mama
Is it true what they say that papa never worked a day in his life
And mama some bad talk goin' round town sayin'
That papa had three outside children and another wife
And that ain't right
Heard them talking papa doing some store front preachin'
Talked about saving souls and all the time leechin'
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 alone
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 steal
To pay his bills
Hey mama
Folks say papa never was much on thinking
Spent most of his time chasing women and drinking
Mama I'm depending on you
To tell me the truth
Mama looked up with a tear in her eye and said son
Papa was a rolling stone well well
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
I said papa was a rolling stone yes he was my son
Wherever he laid his hat was his home
And when he died all he left us was alone
My daddy
