A.M.Drive - Stones lyrics

Once upon a time, you dressed so fine Threw the bums a dime in your prime, didn't you? People'd call, say, "Beware doll, you're bound to fall" You thought they were all kiddin' you You used to laugh about everybody that was hangin' out Now you don't talk so loud, now you don't seem so proud About having to be scrounging around for your next meal How does it feel, how does it feel To be on your own with no direction home? Like a complete unknown, like a rolling stone You've gone to the finest school all right, Miss Lonely Don't you know you only used to get juiced in it? Nobody has ever taught you how to live on the street Now you find out 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 say,"Do you want to make a deal?" How does it feel, how does it feel To be without a home, with no direction home? Like a complete unknown, like a rolling stone You never turned around to see the frowns On the jugglers and the clowns When they all came down and did tricks for you You never understood that it ain't no good You should never let other people get your kicks for you You used to ride on the chrome horse with your diplomat Who carried on his shoulder a Siamese cat Ain't it hard when you discover that He really wasn't where it's at? After he's taken everything he could steal How does it feel, how does it feel To be without a home, with no direction home? Like a complete unknown, like a rolling stone Princess on the steeple and all the pretty people Drinkin', thinkin' that they got it made Exchanging all precious gifts and things But take your diamond ring down and pawn it, babe You used to be so amused At Napoleon in rags and the language that he used Go to him now, he calls you, and you can't refuse When you ain't got nothing, you got nothing to lose You're invisible, you got no secrets to conceal How does it feel, how does it feel To be without a home, with no direction home? Like a complete unknown, like a rolling stone
