The Temptations – Papa Was A Rolling Stone

The Temptations – Papa Was A Rolling Stone subscribe 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 nothing but bad things about him. Mama, I’m depending on you to tell me the truth. And Mama just hung her head and said, “Son, Papa was a rolling stone. Wherever he laid his hat was his home. (And when he died) All he left us was alone.” “Papa was a rolling stone, my son. Wherever he laid his hat was his home. (And when he died) All he left us was alone.” Well, well Hey Mama, is it true what they say, that Papa never worked a day in his life? And Mama, some bad talk going around town saying that Papa had three outside children and another wife. And that ain’t right. Hey, talk about Papa doing some store front preaching. Talked about saving souls and all the time leeching. Dealing in debt and stealing in the name of the Lord. Mama just hung her head and said, “Papa was a rolling stone, my son. Wherever he laid his hat was his home. (And when he died) All he left us was alone.” “Hey, Papa was a rolling stone. Wherever he laid his hat was his home. (And when he died) All he left us was alone.” Ugh Hey Mama, 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 Mama, folks say that Papa was never much on thinking. Spent most of his life chasing women and

DAVID RUFFIN & EDDY KENDRICKS WITH THE TEMPTATIONS…… LIVE @ LOS ANGELOS 1987 MY WHOLE WORLD

The Temptations – Just My Imagination

Was just jammin to this with some friends today in the car… The Temptations — Just my Imagination – a classic. Couple interesting factoids about the Temptations (compliments of wikipedia): – the original group was a compilation of two local Detroit vocal groups — The Distants & The Primes… coming together to first form The Elgins… before The Temptations – at the height of his success lead singer David Ruffin got a little absurd — he demanded he ride to and from gigs in a private mink lined limousine… he started using cocaine, and when he missed a gig at a Cleveland club the other four members had to write up legal documentation — and fired him – Ruffin then began turning up at Temptations shows, jumping onstage during performances of the songs he once sang lead on and stealing the spotlight. The audiences — apparently – were delighted – Extra security guards were hired to prevent Ruffin from attending other Temptations’ performances – the group has switched personnel multiple times; there are currently 6 members, and there are 17 former members – The Temptations were made honorary members of Phi Beta Sigma — don’t know why – they’re known for wearing amazing matching tailored suits

The Temptations – I Wish It Would Rain

I hope Utube doesn’t remove this version. Please Utube I posted this video to COMMENT on how great this song is with no expecations of anything. Yes, I am CRITICIZING Utube for their actions on other videos that have been removed but also am TEACHING, I hope, that music should not be censored by greed in this forum of us little people and “et al”. This version is cut from another Utuber’ video, thanks to the original poster. This song was written by Roger Penzabene. His first song in the trilogy was “You’re My Everything”, written as a testament to his love for his wife. After learning of her cheating he was heartbroken. He then wrote “I Wish It Would Rain’ describing his pain, then finally “I Could Never Love Another” to finish the trilogy of how he felt. Unable to handle the extreme pain and unwilling to leave his wife, he wrote the last two songs as personal statements to her, publicizing the pain she caused him. After both songs were completed and recorded, tragically Roger committed suicide.
