Words and music by Bob Dylan.
Yeah How does it feel How does it feel Once upon a time you dressed so fine Threw the bums a dime in your prime, didn't you People called, say "Beware doll, you're bound to fall" Thought they were all kidding you You used to laugh about Everybody that was hanging 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 Just like a rolling stone You've gone to the finest school, Miss Lonely But you know you only used to get juiced in it No one ever taught you how to live on the street 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 into the vacuum of his eyes And you ask him if you want to make a deal How does it feel How does it feel To be on your own Like a complete unknown Just like a rolling stone Tell me Tell me Tell me Yeah "Oh, rock Ronno, rock" You never turned around to catch the frowns on the jugglers and clowns When they all did their tricks for you You never understood that it ain't no good To let other people get your kicks for you You used to ride a chrome horse with your diplomat Who carried on his shoulder a Siamese cat Ain't it hard to discover that He 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 Like a complete unknown To be without a home Just like a rolling stone Just like a rolling stone Just like a rolling stone
