Once upon a time you dressed so fine
Threw the bums a dime in your prime, didn't you?
People'd call, say, "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 for your next meal
Here we go
How does it feel
How does it feel
To be on your own
With no direction home
A complete unknown
Like a rolling stone?
(You've gone to the finest school alright, little Miss Lonely
But you only got juiced in it
See, no one ever taught you how to live out on the street
And now you know you've gotta get used to it)
You said you'd never compromise
With the mystery tramp, but now you realize
(This cat's not selling no alibis
As you stare into the vacuum of his eyes)
And say, "Do you want to make a deal?"
