Cut​-​Rate Rolling Stone

from The Duke Of Haphazard: 2nd Demo Album by David A. Harley

/

about

No, nothing to do with a band whose survivors are even older than I am. A very young song, probably from the late 60s.

lyrics

I never could hold down a job more than a month or so
Mostly I'd get itchy feet, and down the road I'd go

But I never meant to live the kind of life I've known
I guess I was designed to be a cut-rate rolling stone

There never was a woman born who could tie me down
Some just quit trying, some just wore me down

Somehow I always found myself back on the road again
With a backpack full of dreams and just a roadmap for a friend

I've tried to put down roots in some places that I've been
Sometimes I thought that I'd found love but it was all a dream
