Ricky Nelson - Teenage Idol (1962)

Some people call me a teenage idol

Some people say they envy me

I guess they got no way of knowing

How lonesome I can be

I need somebody to be my baby

Someone to tell my troubles to

I've got no time to ever find her

Cause I'm just passing through

I travel around from town to lonely town

I guess I'll always be just a rolling stone

If I find fortune and fame and lots of people know my name

That won't mean a thing if I'm all alone

I get no rest when I'm feeling weary

I got to pack my bags and go

I got to be somewhere tomorrow

To smile and do my show

I travel around from town to lonely town

I guess I'll always be just a rolling stone

If I find fortune and fame and lots of people know my name

That won't mean a thing if I'm all alone

Some people call me a teenage idol

Some people say they envy me

I guess they got no way of knowing

How lonesome I can be

How lonesome I can be
