Was I Right or Wrong (Sounds Of The South demo version)

Like a resstless leaf,
In the autumn breeze, once i was a tumbleweed,
Like a rolling stone cold all alone,
Living for the day my dream would come,
I never cared for school, or any golden rules,
Papa used to allways say I was a useless fool,
So I left my home to show him they was wrong,
And headed out on the road singing my song,
Then one sunny day, the man he looked my way,
And everything that I dreamed of it was real,
Money, girls and cars, and big long cigars
And i caught the first plane home so papa could see...
When I went home to show him they was wrong,
All that i found was two tombstones,
Somebody tell me please was i right or wrong,
Woa it's such a sad song
First i got lost then i got found,
But the ones that i love were in the ground,
Papa i only wish you could see me now,
Take a listen papa...
If there is any way, you can hear what i say,
Papa I never meant to do ya no wrong,
All the money, girls, and cars, and all the world's big long cigars,
Papa I just want you to know they couldn't take your place...
When I went home to show them they was wrong,
All that i found was a two tombstones,
Somebody tell me please was i right or wrong,
Lord it's such a sad song
First I got lost,
Then I got found,
But the ones that i loved were in the ground,
Somebody tell me please was i right or wrong,
