 Like a resstless leaf,
in the autumn breeze, once i was a tumbleweed,
like a rolling stone crawling all alone,
living for the day my dream would come,
I never cared for school, or any golden rule,
papa used to all ways say I was a useless fool,
so I left my home to show him he was wrong,
and headed out on the road singing my song,
Then one sunny day, the man he looked my way,
and everything I dreamed of it was real,
money, girls and cars, and big long cigars
and i caught the first plane home so papa could see,
When I went home to show him they was wrong,
All that i found was two tombstones,
somebodytell me please was i right or wrong,
(such a sad story)
first i got lost then i got found,
but the ones that i love were in the ground,
papa i only wish you could see me now,
(Take a listen papa)
*Instrumental*
(play one for mama now)
*Instrumental*
(female backups)
First I got lost, then I got found,
The ones that I loved were in the ground,
Won't you tell me please was I right or wrong?
If there is any way, you can hear what i say,
papa I never ment to do you wrong,
All the money, girls, and cars, and all the world's big long cigars,
papa I just want you to know they couldn't take your place,
when I went home to show them they was wrong,
all that i found was a two tombstones,
sombody tell me please was i right or wrong,
(such a sad song)
first I got lost,
then I got found,
the ones that i loved were in the ground,
somebody tell me please was i right or wrong,
