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
