A Rollin' Stone

Kingston Trio


A rollin' stone gathers no moss
A rollin' stone gathers no moss
And as far as i can see i guess i was meant to be
Just a rollin' stone

A rollin' stone gathers no moss
And a rollin' stone hasn't a boss
Just like a spring or a summer 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
Travelin'
I got no home sweet home
Just keep boppin', never stoppin', couldn't even if i wanted to
I've got to roam and roam

A rollin' stone gathers no moss
A rollin' stone's just like that coin that you tossed
But i don't need level ground; i can roll uphill 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

Now some might think my life's a loss
A rollin' stone never gets lost
So i'll just keep playin' it straight till i roll right through
That gate
I'm just a rollin' stone

A rollin' stone....a rollin' stone....
