Once
upon
a time you dressed so fine
You threw the punch of time
in your prime
Didn't you?
People called and said be
ware though
You found a flaw,
you thought they were all
I'm you, you used to laugh about
everybody that hurts hanging out
Now you don't talk so loud,
now you don't seem so proud
About having to be scrounging
your next meal
How does it feel?
How does it feel?
To be without a home
Like a complete unknown
Like a rolling stone
You've gone to the finest school,
alright Miss Lonely
But you know you only used
to get used to it
Nobody has ever taught you
how to live on the street
Now you find you're gonna
have to get used to it
You said you'd never compromise
With the mystery tramp, but now you realize
He's not selling any alibis
As you stare in to the
vacuum of his eyes
I say, do you want to make up for you?
How does it feel?
How does it feel?
To be on your own
With no direction home
Like a complete unknown,
like a rolling stone
You never turn around
and see the frowns on the girls
and the clowns
They are their tricks to you
You never understood
there ain't no good
You shouldn't let other people
get your kicks for you
You used to ride on a crumb horse
with your diplomat
Who carried on your shoulders
a Siamese cat
Ain't it hard when you dis cover that
It 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
In no direction home
Like a complete unknown,
like a rolling stone
Princess of the people and all
the pretty people
They're drinking,
thinking that they got it made
Exchanging old tags
of pre cious gifts and things
You better leave to diamond ring,
you better
Polly babe, you used to be so amused
By Napoleon Rex
and the language that he used
Go to him, he calls you now,
you can't refuse
When you've got nothing,
you've got nothing to lose
You're invisible now,
you've got no secrets to conceal
How does it feel?
How does it feel?
To be on your own
With no direction home
Like a complete unknown
Like a rolling stone
Yeah
Woo!
