What's this song about?
Generate meaning
1
Once upon a time you dressed so fine
2
Threw the bums a dime in your prime, didn't you?
3
People call say 'beware doll, you're bound to fall'
4
You thought they were all kidding you
5
You used to laugh about
6
Everybody that was hanging out
7
Now you don't talk so loud
8
Now you don't seem so proud
9
About having to be scrounging your next meal
10
How does it feel, how does it feel?
11
To be without a home
12
Like a complete unknown, like a rolling stone
13
Ahh you've gone to the finest schools, alright Miss Lonely
14
But you know you only used to get juiced in it
15
Nobody's ever taught you how to live out on the street
16
And now you're gonna have to get used to it
17
You say you never compromise
18
With the mystery tramp, but now you realize
19
He's not selling any alibis
20
As you stare into the vacuum of his eyes
21
And say do you want to make a deal?
22
How does it feel, how does it feel?
23
To be on your own, with no direction home
24
A complete unknown, like a rolling stone
25
Ah you never turned around to see the frowns
26
On the jugglers and the clowns when they all did tricks for you
27
You never understood that it ain't no good
28
You shouldn't let other people get your kicks for you
29
You used to ride on a chrome horse with your diplomat
30
Who carried on his shoulder a Siamese cat
31
Ain't it hard when you discovered that
32
He really wasn't where it's at
33
After he took from you everything he could steal
34
How does it feel, how does it feel?
35
To have on your own, with no direction home
36
Like a complete unknown, like a rolling stone
37
Ahh princess on a steeple and all the pretty people
38
They're all drinking, thinking that they've got it made
39
Exchanging all precious gifts
40
But you better take your diamond ring, you better pawn it babe
41
You used to be so amused
42
At Napoleon in rags and the language that he used
43
Go to him he calls you, you can't refuse
44
When you ain't got nothing, you got nothing to lose
45
You're invisible now, you've got no secrets to conceal
46
How does it feel, ah how does it feel?
47
To be on your own, with no direction home
48
Like a complete unknown, like a rolling stone
