Mick Ronson, David Bowie - Like A Rolling Stone lyrics

[Mick Ronson, David Bowie - Like A Rolling Stone lyrics]

How, how does it feel, how does it feel?

Once upon a time you dressed so fine
Threw the bums a dime in your prime
Didn't you? People'd call say: 'Beware doll
You're bound to fall'
Thought they were kiddin' you
You used to laugh about
Everybody that was hangin' out
Now you don't talk so loud
Now you don't seem so proud
About having to be scrounging
For your next meal

How does it feel? How does it feel?
To be without a home like a complete unknown?
Just like a rolling stone?

You've gone to the finest
School's Miss Lonely
But you know you only used
To get juiced in it
No one ever taught you how
To live on the street
You're gonna have to get used to it
You said you never compromise
With the mystery tramp but now you realize
You're not selling any alibis
As you stare into the vacuum of his eyes
When you ask him if he still
Wants to make a deal

How does it feel? How does it fee?
To be on your own like a complete unknown?
Just like a rolling stone?

Tell me, tell me, tell me, yeah!

Oh rock, Ronno, rock!

You never turned around to catch the frowns
On the jugglers and clowns when they
All did their tricks for you
You never understood that it ain't no good
To let other people get your kicks for you

You used to ride upon the
Horse with your diplomat
Who carried on his shoulder a Siamese cat
Ain't it hard to discover that he
Really wasn't where it's at?
After he took from you
Everything he could steal

How does it feel? How does it feel?
To be on your own like a complete unknown?
To be without a home just
Like a rolling stone
Just like a rolling stone
Just like a rolling stone
