Verse: It was the 3rd 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) Refrain: Papa was a rolling stone wherever he laid His hat was his home And when he died all he left us was alone Rap:hey mama is it true what they say Papa never worked a day in his life Bad talk going round town saying Three other kids and another man's wife Heard some talk about Store-front preaching Saving souls and All the time him leeching Dealing in debt And stealing in the name of the lord I heard papa called a jack of all trades Is that what sent papa to an early grave Folks say Papa would beg, borrow And steal to pay his bills Hey mama Folks say papa never was thinking Chasing women and all the time drinking Mama i´m depending on you To tell me the truth Refrain
