My Wheels Won't Turn |
I met a man who bought up land |
Wherever his feet would tread |
He asked me to El Paso |
Said I could stay on his spread |
He has horses and cows and tractors and plows |
And all kinds of money to burn |
But how can I get to Texas |
When my wheels won’t turn |
There was a lady from Spain |
Who had a fine frame |
Then she moved to Hollywood |
She said come and stay for a week and a day |
I said I did not think I could |
She said the sunshine’s fine |
I could spend some time |
There are lessons I could learn |
But how can I get to L.A. |
When my wheels won’t turn |
How can I get to L.A. |
When my wheels won’t turn |
I’m standin' still |
'Cause my wheels won’t turn |
I’m not in love |
And my fuel won’t burn for you |
At a college of knowledge I tried to learn |
All the tricks to beat the system |
I’d hide nooks and memorize my books |
'Till I knew I’d never never miss them |
Eventually I got my degree |
But the real thing I did learn |
You just can’t hit your home run |
If your wheels won’t turn |
There was a man in white |
Who did things rght |
Now he watches from above |
He said here’s the way that I want you to pray |
And the way to live and love |
So I saw the light and did things right |
But the candle would not burn |
Tell me, how can I get to heaven |
If my wheels won’t turn |
How can I get to heaven |
If my wheels won’t turn |
