["He's not selling any alibis, as you stare into the vacuum of his eyes","You're invisible now, you got no secrets to conceal","When you got nothing, you got nothing to lose","","Threw the bums a dime in your prime, didn't you?","Like a complete unknown","Nobody has ever taught you how to live on the street","Used to ride on the chrome horse with your diplomat","But you'd better take your diamond ring, you'd better pawn it babe","","You shouldn't let other people get your kicks for you","","How does it feel? Oh, how does it feel","To be without a home","How does it feel? How does it feel","On the jugglers and the clowns, when they all did tricks for you","You used to be so amused","You used to laugh about","With the mystery tramp, but now you realize","","Like a rolling stone?","To be on your own, with no direction home","Like a rolling stone?","How does it feel? How does it feel","Now you don't talk so loud, now you don't seem so proud","Like a rolling stone?","","Oh, princess on the steeple and all the pretty people","","Like a rolling stone?","Who carried on his shoulder a Siamese cat","After he took from you everything he could steal","How does it feel? How does it feel","And now you're gonna have to get used to it","They're all drinkin', thinkin' that they got it made","Go to him now, he calls you, you can't refuse","","Everybody that was hangin' out","To have you on your own, no direction home","Oh, you never turned around to see the frowns","You said you'd never compromise","And say do you want to make a deal?","A complete unknown","At Napoleon in rags and the language that he used","About having to be scrounging, your next meal","You thought they were all kiddin' you","","","But you know you only used to get juiced in it","You never understood that it ain't no good","Once upon a time you dressed so fine","","","Like a complete unknown","To be on your own, with no direction home","Exchanging all precious gifts","Like a complete unknown","People'd call, say, \"Beware doll, you're bound to fall\"","Ain't it hard when you discover that, he really wasn't where it's at","Oh, you've gone to the finest school all right, miss Lonely"]
