A shorter version (looks like it might be from Soul Train though I didnโ€™t see Don Cornelius)

LOL!

Ah, the long version. First two bass notes and I know what it is. Best lyric ever. “All he left was alone.”. Awesome arrangement. I’ve even played it a few times with some of my soul brothers. Story is sad but true still, or even more so today. Thanks! ๐Ÿ‘

It was actually recorded first by The Undisputed Truth in 1971.

Same here. I guess the family quickly realized they should have never co-signed the loan. LOL!

Love the song but sadly you listen to this and ‘In the Ghetto’ by Elvis and you see things haven’t changed much in 50 years.

I always got them confused with The Staple Singers for some reason.

Thanks! I don’t remember The Undisputed Truth version. Of course, it can’t compare to the incredible Temptations version of “Papa Was a Rolling Stone.”

Although to me without David Ruffin and Eddie Kendricks, it’s not The Temptations.

Yep! Just playing a little "Name that Tune" for our fellow geezer Freepers.

Not for the better. I think it's gotten far worse in the hood and continues to spread into the countryside.
