Like A Rolling Stone

Once upon a time, you dressed so fine, threw the bums a dime in your prime, didn't you?

People called, said, "Beware, doll, you're 'bout to fall."

You thought they were all a-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 your next meal.

How does it feel?

How does it feel to be without a home, like a complete unknown, like a rolling stone?

Oh, you've gone to the finest school, all right, Miss Lonely, but you know you only

used to get juiced in it.

Nobody's ever taught you how to live out on the street, and now you're going to have to

get used to it. You said you'd never compromise with a mystery tramp, 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 does it feel?

To be on your own

With no direction home

A complete unknown

Like a rolling stone Oh, you never turned around to see the frowns

on the jugglers and the clowns when they all did

Tricks for you You never understood that it ain't no good

You shouldn't let other people get your kicks for you

to ride on a chrome horse with your diplomat, who 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

To everything he could steal

How does it feel

Oh, how does it feel

To have you on your own

With no direction home

Like a complete unknown

Like a rolling stone

A princess on the steeple and all the pretty people

They're all drinking, thanking that they've got it made

Exchanging all precious gifts

But you better take your diamond ring

You better pawn it, babe

You used to be so amused

At Napoleon and rags

language that he used. Go to him now because you, you can't refuse. When you

ain't got nothing, you got nothing to lose. You're invisible now, you got no

secrets to conceal how does it feel oh how does it feel to be on your own with

With no direction home

Like a complete unknown

Just like a rolling stone
