Very long composition (without 10 seconds 12 minutes). A peculiarity of this film is the soundtrack, filled with old melodies, the quality of which is provided by time. The lyrics appear approximately in the middle, almost at the beginning of the 6th minute – on the interval, when most of the other melodies already end. Jazz melody. It has the soul and feels the pleasure of musicians who create it. The main energy begins to be produced only at the beginning of 7th minute.

Papa Was a Rollin' Stone Song Lyrics

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

Momma I'm depending on you, to tell me the truth

Momma just hung her head and said, son

[Chorus 2x:]

Papa was a rolling stone, (my son)

Wherever he laid his hat was his home

And when he died, all he left us was a loan

Hey Momma!

Is it true what they say that Papa never worked a day, in his life

And Momma, 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

Momma just hung her head and said...

[Chorus 2x]

Hey Momma,

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 Momma,

Folks say Papa never was much on thinking

Spent most of his time chasing women and drinking

Momma I'm depending on you, to tell me the truth

Momma looked up with a tear in her eye and said, son...

[Chorus 4x]
