Once upon a time
you dressed so fine
Threw the bums dime
in your prime, didn't you?
People'd call say beware
doll you're bound to fall
You thought they were all
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
bout having to be scrounging
your next meal
How it feel
How it feel
To be without a home
Like a complete unknown
Like a rolling stone
Ah you've gone to the finest
school all right Miss lonely
But you know you
only used to get, juiced in it
Nobody has ever taught you
how to live out on the street
And now you're gonna
have to get used to it
You say you never
compromise
With the mystetramp
but now you realize
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 it feel
To be on your own
with no direction home
Like a complete unknown
Like a rolling stone
Ah you never turned
around to see the frowns
on the jugglers and the clowns
when they all did tricks for you
You never unstood
that it ain't no good
shouldn't let other
people get your kicks for you
to ride
on the chrome horse
with your diplomat
carried on his
shoulder a Siamese cat
Ain't it hard
when you discover that
He really wasn't
where it's at
After he took from
you everything
he could steal
How does it feel
How it feel
To be you on your own
with no direction home
Like a complete unknown
Like a rolling stone
Ah, princess on the steeple
and all the pretty people
They're all drinkin' thinkin'
that they got it made
changing
all precious gifts
But you'd bebe-
take your diamond ring
You better pawn it babe
You used be so amused
at poleon in rags
and the language that he used
Go to him now he calls you
you can't refuse
When you ain't got nono-
got nothing to lose
You're invisible now
you got no secrets conceal
How does it feel
oh how does it feel
To be on your own
With no direction home
Like a complete unknown
Like a rolling stone
