Текст песни Like A Rolling Stone (John Mellencamp) с переводом

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?»

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 never turned around to see the frowns on the jugglers and the clowns

When they all came down and did their tricks for you

You never understood that it ain’t no good

You shouldn’t let other people get their 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 took from you everything he could steal

How does it feel

How does it feel

To be on your own

No direction home

A complete unknown

Like a rolling stone?

Princess on the steeple, all the pretty people

They’re thinkin', drinkin' that they got it made

Exchanging all precious gifts

Y’better take that diamond ring, y’better pawn it, babe

You used to be so amused

With Napoleon in rags and all the clever language that he used

Go ahead now, he calls you, man, you can’t refuse

Now that you realize you got nothing to lose

You’re invisible now, you got no secrets to conceal

Well, how does it feel

How does it feel

To be on your own

With no direction home

And a complete unknown

Like a rolling stone?
