A Teenage Idol Ricky Nelson Music and lyrics by Jack Lewis
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
