him. Never heard nothing but bad things about him. Mama, I’m depending on you to tell me the truth. And Mama looked at me 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 …
hey! check out and join my motown group!

-THE TEMPTATIONS
Best,smilingrasta
i hav no idea what the hek a rolling stone means but, The Temptations is the BEST oldies (not trying to be rude but, the were famous a long time ago) band EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Write new 70s songs now.
I’m pretty sure it was “he left us ALONE” not an actual loan haha
fantastic
Great song – slight mistake in the words though: whe he died, all he left us was “a loan”, not alone…
dennis would always be my number 1
he gave them their first grammys.He was singing the song he did the first time.Check his temptations review group still better than otis ‘s
seahatfunches, i don’t think the tempts tried to replace David with someone who sounds like David, Dennis voice is more powerful, David is more gritty, different sounds and styles, I must say that Damon did sound like eddie, but glenn and tyson sound good, not saying they are better singers than eddie but they fit nicely in the group, richard has a complete different voice than Paul who was a great barritone and dancer, richard has that buttery tenor and great dancer and performer
I was jus talkin to Otis on the phone! New cd comin out in a couple months if interested! Please subscribe!
Dennis was a real temp…he actually was the 1 who song this song
there are only two real temps up there and its melvin and otis
hmm its kind of odd how when ever one member was fired or quit such as david ruffin and eddie kendricks, they replaced them with someone they thought would kind of take their place VOICE wise. such as eddies replacement has a hiqh pitch voice. and davidz replacement kinda has a stronq voice..not as stronq as davidz but stronq. never payed attention to that until today. i think the oriqinal tempts were better then the endinq tempts. eddie, paul, bleu, otis, and david

This version is great. The version I just listened to from 1972 was great. I just watched them live last night in concert and was very disappointed. The lead singer for this song screamed the song. Otis Williams, however, was amazingly wonderful! I LOVED his performance and was AWED by his energy. He has maintained his voice his whole 48 years of being a Temptin’ Temptation!
Dang now THATs a production number!
Dennis Edwards could get this kitty!!
STILL sound great !
agreed
eww dennis’s mouth is nasty look around 00:10- 00:14 just disgusting
Da shit!!!
As for mama’s i say mama was a flying rock.
