some people call me a teenage idol

some people say they envy me

i guess they got no way of knowing

how lonesome i can be



i need somebody to be my baby

someone to tell my troubles to

i've got no time to ever find her

cause i'm just passing through



i travel around from town to lonely town

i guess i'll always be just a rolling stone

if i find fortune and fame and lots of people know my name

that won't mean a thing if i'm all alone



i get no rest when i'm feeling weary

i got to pack my bags and go

i got to be somewhere tomorrow

to smile and do my show



i travel around from town to lonely town

i guess i'll always be just a rolling stone

if i find fortune and fame and lots of people know my name

that won't mean a thing if i'm all alone
