Papa was a rollin' stone But I wanna be the cover of a rollin' stone Only I know that I can't do it alone Only I know that I can't do it alone August 6 1981, I took my first breath They said I smiled, they cried till it was none left I guess I knew what I was in for before hand Miniature grown man, third of three sons Big bird and squirt guns Aunt Tamey dressed up like a clown when I turned one Scared the shit outta me but thanks for tryin' Sittin' in my high chair, throwin' cake and cryin' I remember everything, every single detail Clingin' on to daddy's leg like don't leave I'll be good I promise, I'll do anything, dad, honest But he had to go to work and bust his ass for them dollars Now it all makes sense, back then I wasn't havin' it Obsessed with He-man, so young and so adamant More concerned with Castle Gray Skull than baseball Then I learned if I worked a little, I could have it all All my friends got allowances, I had a paper route And when no one was lookin' I threw the papers out Got caught, made dad furious Said if you gonna do somethin', do it right, that's what earnest it Papa was a rollin' stone But I wanna be the cover of a rollin' stone Only I know that I can't do it alone Only I know that I can't do it alone Papa was a rollin' stone Workin' hard while I'm at home alone With some Mcolly Caulken shit, so be it Little man had a plan, followed through with it But moms was so inconsiderate, illiterate, nope I read the dictionary daily, gift of gab of rap And set sail and step mom brought the whoop end of the stick Nothin' new to me, don't act like my momma 'Cause my dad bought you some jewelry, o the tom foolery I sat back and watched pops play the ladies Like just check mates, six sibling, three different moms Can you imagine? Simply seein' your pay check Broken down to fractions Papa was a pimp, married four times Indecisive, tryin' to strike a gold mine Siftin' through the sand, somethin' like a 49er Numb to the point that my chest become a coal mine But women come and go And I'll be here till the bitter end, pop, I'm just lettin' you know I never understood temptation I guess we both got a little David rough [Incomprehensible] Everybody sing it with us now Papa was a rollin' stone But I wanna be the cover of a rollin' stone Only I know that I can't do it alone Only I know that I can't do it alone Papa was a rollin' stone But I wanna be the cover of a rollin' stone Only I know that I can't do it alone Only I know that I can't do it alone © EMI APRIL MUSIC INC.; EPILEPTIC CEASAR MUSIC; SONY/ATV SONGS LLC; Bu döküman AkorMerkezi.com'da yayınlanmıştır. http://www.akormerkezi.com
