Yes, as a survivor of the 60's I know the correct lyrics. See my post #27 above.

What a maroon...

"You've gone to the finest school all right, miss lonely
But you know you only used to get juiced in it
And nobody has ever taught you how to live on the street
And now you find out you're gonna have to get used to it
You said you'd never compromise

With the mystery tramp, but now you realize
He's not selling any alibis

As you stare into the vacuum of his eyes

And ask him do you want to make a deeeal?

Aaaaaaaaaaoh, how does it feel?
C'mon, how does it feel?
To be on your own
With no direction home
Like a complete unknown


Like a rolling stone..."

Bob Dylan, "Like a Rolling Stone"

Princess on the steeple and all the pretty people
They're drinkin', thinkin' that they got it made


Exchanging all kinds of precious gifts and things
But you'd better lift your diamond ring, you'd better pawn it babe
You used to be so amused

At Napoleon in rags and the language that he used
Go to him now, he calls you, you can't refuse
When you got nothin', you got nothin' to lose

You're invisible now, you got no secrets to conceal...

Ironically, Bob Dylan thought the Beatles were cool for singing, “I get high, I get high, I get HIGH...!” in the song, ‘I Want to Hold Your Hand’.

The irony is, of course, that they really sang "I can't hide", but Dylan thought it was "I get high" .. and so he unwittingly 'introduced' them to pot upon their first meeting, thinking that they were already potheads

Ha! Bet they were insulted to know he thought they were so lacking in experience!

Don’t go around tonight,
Well, it’s bound to take your life,
There’s the bathroom on the right.

Haahahahaaa ... well OK, but that is CCR, not Dylan ... /grin

Otherwise, good thing the bathroom is on the right because in Joiysey there are NO LEFT TURNS ALLOWED ANYWHERE ... poor Joiysey'ites gotta drive round and round and round in right circles all the time .......
