Like a rolling stone
Testo e musica di Bob Dylan

Once upon a time you dressed so fine
You threw the bums a 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 use 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 for 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 has ever taught you how to live on the street
And now you're gonna have to get used to it
You said you'd never compromise.
With the mistery tramp, but now you realize
He's not selling any alibis
As you stare into the vacuum of his eyes
Ask him do you want to make a deal?

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?

Oh, you never tourned 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
You use to ride on the 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 tooks from you everything he could steal.

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?

Ah, princess on the steeple and all the
Pretty people, they are drinkin', thinkin' that they got it made
Exchanging all precious gifts
You'd better take your diamond ring, you'd better pawn it babe
You used to be so amused
At Napoleon in rags and the language that he used
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
like a complete unknown, like a rolling stone?
