Lyrics to Wheels
You take the wheel, while I take a piss
There's no chance that our Mothers
Thought we'd wind up like this
It took hours to leave Tulsa, still wired from the show
Shared an apple pipe with the sound guy
And we hit the road
We were like wheels caught in their motion
Steady as a young stone that rolls down the hill
And our foggy headlights they still shine
But not so bright
Free with our hands tied
Alone, but too caught up to feel
And a motel floor palette, a cracked windshield view
You get that call from back home
But you're too late to choose
So you lean on the laughter of folks that say how
We've lived more life than any five good sailors we've found
Just like wheels caught in their motion
Steady as a young stone that rolls down the hill
And our foggy headlights they still shine
But not so bright
Free with our hands tied
Alone, but too caught up to feel
And you can't blame the memories
'Cause they brought you a long, long way
Just like wheels caught in their motion
Steady as a young stone that rolls down the hill
And our foggy headlights they still shine
But not so bright
Free with our hands tied
Alone, but too caught up to feel
Too caught up to feel
Just like wheels
Too caught up to feel
There's no chance that our Mothers
Thought we'd wind up like this
It took hours to leave Tulsa, still wired from the show
Shared an apple pipe with the sound guy
And we hit the road
We were like wheels caught in their motion
Steady as a young stone that rolls down the hill
And our foggy headlights they still shine
But not so bright
Free with our hands tied
Alone, but too caught up to feel
And a motel floor palette, a cracked windshield view
You get that call from back home
But you're too late to choose
So you lean on the laughter of folks that say how
We've lived more life than any five good sailors we've found
Just like wheels caught in their motion
Steady as a young stone that rolls down the hill
And our foggy headlights they still shine
But not so bright
Free with our hands tied
Alone, but too caught up to feel
And you can't blame the memories
'Cause they brought you a long, long way
Just like wheels caught in their motion
Steady as a young stone that rolls down the hill
And our foggy headlights they still shine
But not so bright
Free with our hands tied
Alone, but too caught up to feel
Too caught up to feel
Just like wheels
Too caught up to feel
