Like a resstless leaf, in the autumn breeze, once i was a tumbleweed, like a rolling stone cold all alone, living for the day my dream would come, never cared for school, or any golden rules, papa used to all ways say I was a useless fool, so I left my home to show him they 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, somebody tell me please was i right or wrong, Woa it's such a sad song 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....
oooh I learned how to play my guitar, gunna be a superstar *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 meant to do ya no 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, Lord it's 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,
