I've been loved and I've been alone All my life I been a rolling stone Done everthing that a man can do Everthing to get a hold on you Done everything that a man can do Everything to get a hold on you I've been blessed and I've been cursed All my lines has been unrehearsed All the fires that I walked through Only tryin' to get a hold on you All the fires that I walked through Only tryin' to get a hold on you I saw you waiting at the gate But I arrived a moment late I saw you shed a single tear Still I can't get there from here I've been high and I been low I've been people that i don't know Been to China and old Peru Only tryin to get a hold of you Been to China and to Peru Only tryin' to get a hold of you.
