Rollin' Stone Songtext
von The Kingston Trio

Stan Wilson

A rollin′ stone gathers no moss. (Repeat) 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. (Repeat and fade)
