Sittin' in a road side tavern The only cowboy seated here alone Every night a lonely lady Wants to tell me all about her broken home It's like they can see inside my mind They act as though they know I'll understand I guess they know it when the hear my name And feel it when they touch my tremblin' hand Ah, but if anyone ought to know The loneliness of a rolling stone It ought to be me, I've always been alone
If anyone ought to know About things like hurt and misery It ought to be me, Lord in heaven knows it ought to be me If anyone ought to know The loneliness of a rolling stone It ought to be me, that's the reason I'm all alone If anyone ought to know About things like hurt and misery It ought to be me, Lord in heaven knows it ought to be me
