- Papa Was Too (Tramp) Lyrics / with translationsTramp!
Allright baby you can call me that
My papa was
'Cause I never dug working
From morning 'till 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
Like papa do
Like papa do now
'Cause I'm his son
Why can't I be like my daddy
Low down and nasty
Allright if you want to call me that go ahead
I guess papa was too
Just 'cause he don't take
Nobody's mess
Allright baby you can call me that
My papa was
'Cause I never dug working
From morning 'till 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
Like papa do now
'Cause I'm his son
Why can't I be like my daddy
Low down and nasty
Allright if you want to call me that go ahead
I guess papa was too
Just 'cause he don't take
Nobody's mess
