It was the third of September
  That day I`ll always remember, yes I will
  `Cause that was the day that my daddy died
  
  Never had a chance to see him, no
  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
  
  Chorus
  "Papa was a rollin` stone
  Wherever he laid his hat was his home
  And when he died
  All he left us was alone" (repeat)
  
  Hey, Mama, is it true what they say
  That Papa never worked a day in his life
  Some bad talk going around sayin`
  Papa had there outside children
  And another wife
  That ain`t right
  
  Heard some talk about Papa and his storefront
  Preachin`
  Talkin` about saving souls and all the time
  Leaching
  And dealing in dirt
  Stealin` in the name of the Lord
  
  But Mama she just said
  
  Chorus
  
  Say, I heard my papa was a jack of all trades
  Is that what sent Papa to an early grave?
  Folks say Papa would beg, borrow or steal just
  To pay his bills.
  Hey, Mama, folks say Papa was never much on thinkin´
  Spent most of his time chansin` women and drinkin´
  But Mother, I´m depending on you to tell me the
  Truth
  
  But my mama she just said
  
  Chorus(2x)
