Once upon a time you used to dress so fine
Do the bugs' chime in your prime, didn't you?
People call say 'beware doll, you're bound to fall'
You thought they were all, kidding you

You used to laugh about
Everybody that was, hanging out
Now you gon' talk so loud
Now you gon' 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

Ah, you never turned around to see the frowns
On the jugglers and the clowns, when they all did tricks for you
Never understood that it ain't no good
Lettin' other people get your kicks for you

You used to ride on a chrome horse with your diplomat
Who carried on his shoulder a Siamese cat
Ain't it hard when you discovered that
He really wasn't well at that
After he took everything from you, he could steal
How does it feel?
How does it feel?
To be on your own
No direction for
Like a rolling stone

Like a rolling stone
Just like a rolling stone
Just like a rolling stone
Like a rolling stone
