Chained To The Wheel Lyrics
Artist: John Denver
Album: Annie's Song
This song appears on three albums, and was first released on the Different Directions album, and has also been released on The Gift You Are and The John Denver Collection - Annies Song albums.
Know what you really need
You cant get enough
Too many mouths to feed
Aint life enough
Call this survival
Dont pray for a sign
Know what you really want
You cant get it back
Down on the water front
Better watch out Jack
Nights on the mainline
Rust on the rail
Ive seen em swindle this town
Ive seen em tumble it down
Ive seen red rivers, fire and steel
Ive felt the thunder chained to the wheel
Know what you mean to me
Goes deeper than that
Cant fight your destiny
Dont know where its at
Dont look for lightn
Or pray for a sign
Ive heard the legends
Ive watched the skies
I feel the power
The flame in your eyes
Ive seen em swindle this town
Ive seen em tumble it down
Ive seen red rivers, fire and steel
Ive felt the thunder chained to the wheel
Words by Nick Smith and Music by Joe Camilleri
