Gym Class Heroes - Like Father, Like Son (Papa's Song) lyrics
rate me<BR>
Papa was a rolling stone <br>
But I wanna be the cover of a rolling stone <br>
Only I know that I can do it alone <br>
Only I know that I can do it alone. <br>
<br>
August 6th, 1981 I took my first breath. <br>
They said I smiled and cried until it was none left. <br>
I guess I knew what I was in for before hand. <br>
Miniture grown man ha. <br>
Third of three sons. Big bird and squirt guns. <br>
Aunt Tammy dressed up like a clown when I turned one. <br>
Scared the shit out of me but thanks for trying. <br>
Sitting in my highchair throwing cake and crying. <br>
I remember everything, every single detail, <br>
Clinging on daddy's leg like don't leave I'll be good. I promise. <br>
I'll do anything Dad honest. <br>
But he had to go to work and bust his ass for them dollars. <br>
Now it all makes sense, back then I wasn't havin it, <br>
Obsessed with He-Man so young and so adimit. <br>
More concerned with Castle Greyskull than baseball <br>
And I learned that if I worked a little that I could have it all. <br>
All of my friend's had allowances, I had a paper route. <br>
And when no one was looking I threw the papers out. <br>
I got caught made dad was furious <br>
And if your gonna do something do it right, thats what earnest is. <br>
<br>
Papa was a rolling stone <br>
But I wanna be the cover of a rolling stone <br>
Only I know that I can do it alone <br>
Only I know that I can do it alone. <br>
<br>
Papa was a rolling stone <br>
Working hard while I'm at home alone <br>
On some Macaulay Culkin shit so bit. <br>
Little man had a plan and had to follow through with it <br>
But moms was so inconsiderate. <br>
Illiterate? Nope. I read the dictionary daily. <br>
Give the gap the rap and set sailing <br>
Step moms get the poop end of the stick nothing new to me. <br>
Don't act like my momma because my dad bought you some jewlery. <br>
Oh the tom foolery <br>
I sat back and watched pops play with women like chess, check mate. <br>
Six sibilings, three different moms. Can you imagine <br>
Simply seeing your paycheck broken down into fractions. <br>
Papa was a pimp, married four times, <br>
Indicisive, trynna strike a gold mine. <br>
Siftin through the sand something like a fortyniner <br>
Up to the point where my chest becomes a coal mine. <br>
But when they come and go, <br>
I'll be here at the bitter end Pop I'mm just letting you know. <br>
I never understood temptation <br>
But I guess we both got a little David Rufus in us. <br>
Everybody sing it with us now. <br>
<br>
Papa was a rolling stone <br>
But I wanna be the cover of a rolling stone <br>
Only I know that I can do it alone <br>
Only I know that I can do it alone. <br>
<br>
Papa was a rolling stone <br>
But I wanna be a cover of the rolling stone <br>
Only I know that I can do it alone <br>
Only I know that I can do it alone.<br>
<BR><BR>
