(and performer, of course)

It starts with

“Once upon a time…”

The chorus starts with

“How does it feel?  
How does it feel?..”

And chorus ends with

“…like a rolling stone” (I suspect this is the name)

Thanks in advance

_Like A Rolling Stone_ by Bob Dylan.  
[Lyrics](http://www.bobdylan.com/songs/rolling.html).  
I think there are a lot of covers of this song. The one I’ve heard most is performed by none other than the Rolling Stones, about 7 years ago.
