I've dodged the flame of love
My heart's been slippery and cold
I always thought I'd walk this path
At least until I was almost old
Those sweet lips and eyes of green
Cut me like a blade of steel
Pull my heart like an eighteen wheel
Running up a tennessee hill
I was a rollin' stone, my feet never touch the ground
She was the only one that ever could tie me down
Free life I left behind
Strapped to an angel's wings
Bounded to a new born love
Tied up in the apron strings
I used to live alone
Never needed anyone
And she turned my head around
I didn't even try to run
I was a rollin' stone, my feet never touch the ground
She was the only one that ever could tie me down
Lookin' back, I realize
Happy is not what I was
When you run across a woman,
It's your true love
Stronger than a moonshine buzz
I was a rollin' stone, my feet never touch the ground
She was the only one that ever could tie me down
I was a rollin' stone, my feet never touch the ground
She was the only one that ever could slow me down
She was the only one that ever could tie me down
