THE WHEEL
Music & lyrics by Brian Nelson
I
knew a man who played to win
betting it all on the simple spin of the wheel
He walked away a poorer man
for he'll never suss the secret plan
of the wheel
And if you want to stand alone
they'll take you out and they breek your bones
on the wheel
And if you got a lot to learn they'll squeeze you dry
with the constant turn of the wheel
People by the million moan
but never try to throw that stone at the wheel
For everything they bite and burn
all depends on the constant turn
of the wheel
I lay my hands upon the ground
I listen hard till I hear no sound
of the wheel, no sound of the wheel....
