Papa Was A Rolling Stone feat. Demi Lovato

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 dependin' on you to tell me the truth

Mama just hung her head and said

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

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?

Some bad talk's goin' around town sayin' papa had three outside children

And another wife and that ain't right

Heard some talk, papa doing some storefront preachin'

Talkin' 'bout saving souls and all the time leechin'

Dealin' in debt and stealin' in the name of the Lord

Mama just hung her head and said

Papa was a rolling stone

Wherever he laid his hat was his home

And when he died

All he left us was alone (yeah)

Papa was a rolling stone

Wherever he laid his hat was his home

And when he died

All he left us was alone, hoo

Hey, mama

I heard papa call 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 thinkin'

Spent most of his time chasin' women and drinkin'

Mama, I'm dependin' on you to tell me the truth

Mama looked up with a tear in her eye and said

Papa was a rolling stone (hey, hey, hey, hey)

Wherever he laid his hat was his home (was his home)

And when he died

All he left us was alone

Papa was a rolling stone (ho-oh)

Wherever he laid his hat was his home

And when he died

All he left us was alone (whoa)

Hoo

Whoa, yeah

Oh-whoa, yeah

Yeah, yeah

Hoo

Hoo
