Papa Was Too Songtext
von Joe Tex

Tramp
Alright baby, you can call me that
My papa was

′Cause I never did workin'
From mornin′ 'til night
And my money didn't seem
To ever come out right, no, no

Papa was a tramp
But he was a lover too
So why can′t I do like papa do?
Alright, like papa do
Like papa do now, ′cause I'm his son
Why can′t I be like my daddy?

Low down, you're nasty
Alright, if you wanna call me that go ahead
I guess papa was too


Just ′cause I don't take nobody′s miss
I get mad in a minute
And jump in your chest
Low down, alright

Papa was too, but he was a lover too
So why can't I do like my papa do?
Alright, like papa do now
Like papa do, 'cause I′m his son
I wanna be like daddy, be like my daddy

Pope
Alright, call me Pope too
′Cause papa was, oh yes, he was

Just covered that holes
In both of my shoes
And I cover them holes
With the daily news
Papa was Pope


He was a lover too
So why can't I do like my papa do? Alright
Like papa do now, like my papa do
′Cause I'm his son, can′t you understand?
I wanna be like my daddy
Be like my daddy
For I'm his son now
And don′t you mess with me now

I'm just, come on
Hang around and do nothin'
Put news paper in my shoes
I done cover them holes
