Papa, who's to blame?
Why you never had your fortune and fame?
Papa, what did you gain
To leave the love you had for a two bit dame?
Papa, why did you turn your back?
Why didn't you stay on track?
Why did you leave and make her cry?
Papa, you meant the world to me
Why did you abandon me?
Now, it's a long and sad goodbye
Papa, what is this game?
With all that cheating you did, you're gonna go insane
Papa, I am in pain
'Cause on the day that you left, you said, I'd do the same
Papa, why did you turn your back?
Why didn't you stay on track?
Why did you leave and make her cry?
Papa, you meant the world to me
Why did you abandon me?
Now, it's a long and sad goodbye
Papa, papa, papa, no
Oh papa, papa, oh papa, no
Oh papa
Why did you turn your back?
Why didn't you stay on track?
Why did you leave and make her cry?
Oh papa, you meant the world to me
Why did you abandon me?
Now, it's a long and sad goodbye
Papa, papa, papa, no
Oh papa, oh papa, oh papa
No, no, no, stay
