a rollin' stone gathers no moss
a rollin' stone gathers no moss
so
as far as i can see
i guess i was meant to be just a rollin' stone
a rollin' stone gathers no moss
a rollin' stone hasn't a boss
just like a spring or a summer's breeze
i can roll just where i please
i'm just a rollin' stone
can't lose my way
all directions are the same when i'm a-travelin'
i've got no home
sweet home
just keep boppin'
never stoppin'
couldn't even if i wanted to
i've got to roam and roll
a rollin' stone gathers no moss
a rollin' stone's like that coin that you toss
but i don't need level ground
i can roll up hill or down
i'm just a rollin' stone
when i'm travelin'
all directions are the same
a string unravelin'
i don't think that i'm to blame
some might think my life's a loss
a rollin' stone never gets lost
so
i'll just keep playin' it straight 'til i roll right through that gate
i'm just a rollin' stone
a rollin' stone
