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 to 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 going to go insane
Papa I am in pain
Cause on the day
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 that world to me
Why did you abandon me
Now it's a long and sad goodbye
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
Papa you meant the world to me
Why did you abandon me
Now it's a long and sad goodbye
Papa
No
Oh, papa
Oh, papa
Oh, papa
