The Rolling Stones - Like a Rolling Stone lyrics
[The Rolling Stones - Like a Rolling Stone lyrics]
Threw the bums a dime in your prime
Didn't you
Yeah, people would call, say, Beware doll
You're bound to fall
You thought they were just kidding you
You used to laugh about
Everybody that was hanging out
And now you don't walk so proud
Now you don't talk so loud
About having to be scrounging your next meal
How does it feel how does it feel
To be on your own with no direction home
A complete unknown just like a rolling stone
You went to the finest schools all right
Miss Lonely
But you know you only used to get
Juiced in it nobody taught you how to
Live out on the street
But now you are going to have to get
Used to it you said you'd never compromise
With the mystery tramp, but now you realize
That he's not selling any alibis
As you stare into the vacuum of his eyes
And say, Do you want to make a deal
How does it feel how does it feel
To be on your own with no direction home
A complete unknown just like a rolling stone
How does it feel how does it feel
To be on your own with no direction home
A complete unknown just like a rolling stone
Yeah, the princess on the steeple
All the pretty people
Drinking, thinking that they got it made
Exchanging all kinds of precious gifts
But you should better take that diamond ring
You should better pawn it babe
You used to be so amused
At Napoleon in rags and the
Language that he used
Now go to him now, he calls you
You can't refuse
When you got nothing, you got nothing to lose
You're invisible now
You got no secrets to conceal
How does it feel how does it feel
To be on your own with no direction home
A complete unknown just like a rolling stone
