Like a restless leaf in the autumn breeze
Once I was a tumblin' weed
Like a rollin' stone, cold and all alone
Living for the day my train would comeI never cared for school or any golden rules
Papa used to always say I was a useless fool
So I left my home to show them they was wrong
And headed out on the road singing my songThen one sunny day, the man, he looked my way
And everything that I dreamed of, it was real
Money, girls and cars and big long cigars
And I caught the first plane home so papa would seeWhen I went home to show 'em they was wrong
All that I found was two tombstones
Somebody tell me please was I right or wrong
Oh, such a sad song
First I got lost, then I got found
But the ones that I love are in the ground
Papa, I only wish you could see me nowTake a listen papa
Woo, I learnt how to play my guitar
Gonna be a superstar[Incomprehensible] for mama nowFirst I got lost, then I got found
The ones I love are in the ground
Won't you tell me please was I right or wrong?If there's any way you can hear what I say
Papa, I never meant to do you wrong
All the money, girls and cars and all the words and all the cigars
Papa, I just want you to know they couldn't take your placeWhen I went home to show 'em they was wrong
All that I found was two tombstones
Somebody tell me please was I right or wrong
Oh, such a sad song
First I got lost, then I got found
But the ones that I love are in the ground
Somebody tell me please was I right or wrong
