Like A Rolling Stone Lyrics - Green Day


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 kiddin' you

5 You used to laugh about

6 Everybody that was hangin' 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

11 How does it feel

12 To be without a home

13 Like a complete unknown

14 Like a rolling stone?


15 Ah, you've gone to the finest school all right, Miss Lonely

16 But you know you only used to get juiced in it

17 Nobody's ever taught you how to live out on the street

18 And now you're gonna have to get used to it

19 You say you never compromise

20 With the mystery tramp, but now you realize

21 He's not selling any alibis

22 As you stare into the vacuum of his eyes

23 And say, "Do you want to make a deal?"


24 How does it feel

25 How does it feel

26 To be on your own

27 With no direction home

28 A complete unknown

29 Like a rolling stone?


30 Ah, you never turned around to see the frowns on the jugglers and the clowns

31 When they all did tricks for you

32 You never understood that it ain't no good

33 You shouldn't let other people get your kicks for you

34 You used to ride on the chrome horse with your diplomat

35 Who carried on his shoulder a Siamese cat

36 Ain't it hard when you discover that

37 He really wasn't where it's at

38 After he took from you everything he could steal?


39 How does it feel

40 How does it feel

41 To be on your own

42 With no direction home

43 Like a complete unknown

44 Like a rolling stone?


45 Ah, princess on the steeple and all the pretty people

46 They're all drinkin', thinkin' that they got it made

47 Exchanging all precious gifts

48 But you'd better take your diamond ring, you'd better pawn it babe

49 You used to be so amused

50 At Napoleon in rags and the language that he used

51 Go to him now, he calls you, you can't refuse

52 When you ain't got nothin', you got nothin' to lose

53 You're invisible now, you got no secrets to conceal


54 How does it feel

55 Ah, how does it feel

56 To be on your own

57 With no direction home

58 Like a complete unknown

59 Like a rolling stone?
