Like A Rolling Stone [Bridges to Bremen]The Rolling Stones

Released: June 21, 2019

Songwriter: Bob Dylan

[Verse 1]
Once upon a time you dressed so fine
Threw the bums a dime in your prime
Didn't you
Yeah, people would call, say, Beware doll, you're
Bound to fall
You thought they were just kidding you
You used to laugh about
Everybody that was hanging out
And now you don't walk so proud
Now you don't talk so loud
About having to be scrounging
Your next meal

[Chorus]
How does it feel
How does it feel
To be on your own
With no direction home
A complete unknown
Just like a rolling stone

[Verse 2]
You went to the finest schools all right
Miss Lonely
But you know you only used to get
Juiced in it
Nobody taught you how to
Live out on the street
But now you are going to have to get
Used to it
You said you'd never compromise
With the mystery tramp, but now you realize
That he's not selling any alibis
As you stare into the vacuum of his eyes
And say, Do you want to make a deal

[Chorus]
How does it feel
How does it feel
To be on your own
With no direction home
A complete unknown
Just like a rolling stone

How does it feel
How does it feel
To be on your own
With no direction home
A complete unknown
Just like a rolling stone

[Verse 3]
Yeah, the princess on the steeple
All the pretty people
Drinking, thinking that they
Got it made
Exchanging all kinds of precious gifts
But you should better take that diamond ring
You should better pawn it babe
You used to be so amused
At Napoleon in rags and the language that he used
Now go to him now, he calls you, you can't refuse
When you got nothing, you got nothing to lose
You're invisible now, you got no secrets to conceal

[Chorus]
How does it feel
How does it feel
To be on your own
With no direction home
A complete unknown
Just like a rolling stone

The Rolling Stones

Formed in London in 1962, The Rolling Stones led the “British Invasion” along with The Beatles and were so successful their influence can be seen in arguably every rock ‘n’ roll band that followed.

Three of the current members have been there since the band’s singer Mick Jagger and guitarist Keith Richards, who write the majority of the band’s catalogue and also produced some albums as The Glimmer Twins; and drummer Charlie Watts. The fourth official member is guitarist Ronnie Wood, who has been there since 1975 (the keyboardist and bassist who play in studio and live are usually not listed). The Stones have released more than 20 studio albums, and even as age caught up on them, continued to be a huge attraction on the live circuit, with big stadium tours continuing through the 1990s, 2000s and into the 2010s.
