GREEN DAY - Like A Rolling Stone lyrics
rate me<BR>
<i>[Originally by Bob Dylan]</i><br>
<br>
Once upon a time you dressed so fine<br>
You threw the bums a dime in your prime, didn't you? <br>
Peopled call, say, beware doll, youre bound to fall<br>
You thought they were all kiddin you<br>
You used to laugh about<br>
Everybody that was hangin out<br>
Now you don't talk so loud<br>
Now you don't seem so proud<br>
About having to be scrounging for your next meal.<br>
<br>
How does it feel<br>
How does it feel<br>
To be without a home<br>
Like a complete unknown<br>
Like a rolling stone?<br>
<br>
You've gone to the finest school all right, miss lonely<br>
But you know you only used to get juiced in it<br>
And nobody has ever taught you how to live on the street<br>
And now you find out you're gonna have to get used to it<br>
You said you'd never compromise<br>
With the mystery tramp, but now you realize<br>
He's not selling any alibis<br>
As you stare into the vacuum of his eyes<br>
And ask him do you want to make a deal?<br>
<br>
How does it feel<br>
How does it feel<br>
To be on your own<br>
With no direction home<br>
Like a complete unknown<br>
Like a rolling stone?<br>
<br>
You never turned around to see the frowns on the jugglers and the clowns<br>
When they all come down and did tricks for you<br>
You never understood that it ain't no good<br>
You shouldn't let other people get your kicks for you<br>
You used to ride on the chrome horse with your diplomat<br>
Who carried on his shoulder a siamese cat<br>
Ain't it hard when you discover that<br>
He really wasn't where its at<br>
After he took from you everything he could steal.<br>
<br>
How does it feel<br>
How does it feel<br>
To be on your own<br>
With no direction home<br>
Like a complete unknown<br>
Like a rolling stone?<br>
<br>
Princess on the steeple and all the pretty people<br>
They're drinkin, thinkin that they got it made<br>
Exchanging all kinds of precious gifts and things<br>
But you'd better lift your diamond ring, you'd better pawn it babe<br>
You used to be so amused<br>
At napoleon in rags and the language that he used<br>
Go to him now, he calls you, you cant refuse<br>
When you got nothing, you got nothing to lose<br>
You're invisible now, you got no secrets to conceal.<br>
<br>
How does it feel<br>
How does it feel<br>
To be on your own<br>
With no direction home<br>
Like a complete unknown<br>
Like a rolling stone?<br>
<BR><BR>
