It was the third of September
That day I’ll always remember, yes I will
’cause that was the day that my daddy died

Never had a chance to see him, no
Never heard nothing but bad things about him
Mama, I’m depending on you to tell me the truth
Mama just hung her head and said

“papa was a rollin’ stone
Wherever he laid his hat was his home
And when he died
All he left us was alone”

Hey, mama, is it true what they say
That papa never worked a day in his life
Some bad talk going around sayin’
Papa had three outside children
And another wife
That ain’t right

Heard some talk about papa and his storefront
Preachin’
Talkin’ about saving souls and all the time
Leachin’
And dealing in dirt
Stealin’ in the name of the Lord

But mama she just said

Say I heard my papa was a jack of all trades
Is that what papa sent to an early grave?
Folks say papa would beg, borrow or steal just
To pay his bills
Hey, mama, folks say papa was never much in thinkin’
Spent most of his time chasin’ women and drinkin’
But mother, I’m depending on you
To tell me the truth

But my mama she just said

Listen to the song once again and fill in the gaps.

I Feel So Unsure
As I take your hand
And lead you to the dance floor
As the music dies
Something in your eyes
Calls to mind a silver screen
And all it’s sad goodbyes

I’m never gonna dance again
Guilty feet have got no rhythm
Though it’s easy to pretend
I know you’re not a fool
I should have known better than to cheat a friend
And waste a chance that I’ve been given
So I’m never gonna dance again
The way I danced with you

Time can never mend
The careless whisper of a good friend
To the heart and mind
Ignorance is kind
There’s no comfort in the truth
Pain is all you’ll find

Tonight the music seems so loud
I wish that we could lose this crowd
Maybe it’s better this way
We’d hurt each other with the things we want to say
We could have been so good together
We could have lived this dance forever
But now who’s gonna dance with me
Please stay

Now that you’ve gone
Now that you’ve gone
Now that you’ve gone
Was what I did so wrong
So wrong that you had to leave me alone

Listen to the song once again and fill in the gaps, please.
