Rich as a Rolling Stone Lyrics by Barton Carroll

Together, You and I

2010

[Verse 1]
She asked if I believe in God above
I said, "Girl, you are living proof"
She said, "Young men, they get away with so much
When they think they're tellin' the truth"
So I thought I will give this song
Save what's left of my breath and pride
And she wrapped me in a love so tight
Oh, she blew my mind
And the wind blew through my room
It was over all too soon
A moment so fine
Whose heart was locked up tight
But her soul, it was alright
[Verse 2]
Love is sacred, oh, love is strange
Love works in mystеrious ways
She said, "I gave it up in my younger days
And I madе up my mind"
So down with love songs and down with hope
Down with poets I swear
When I get to the end of my rope
Who will I find there?
Heard a voice but saw no face
In the dark, she turned away
And whispered so quiet
"Of this you can believe:
You were merely pain relief"
[Verse 3]
Lovely one, won't you spend the night?
She said, "I always sleep alone
I can't do just whatever I want, see I've
Got a little girl at home
And I promised her the kind of man
I would make my own
Would be beautiful like Buddy Holly and
Rich as a Rollin' Stone"
[Verse 4]
Oh, your heart, it does confound
Was I the warmest one around?
Only fools ask why
I used all of my best lines
So, won't you let yourself be mine?
[Verse 5]
Strong as coffee and sweet as cream
Don't you know I like girls that way?
I got no use for the younger ones
'Cause they got nothin' to say
And it's best if you don't ask questions of
How I came into my own
But I'm beautiful like Buddy Holly and
Rich as a Rollin' Stone
