Wheels Of Fortune — текст песни (C.W. Mccall)

(Terry Skinner, J.L. Wallace)

[Chorus]
(Gotta keep these wheels)
Wheels of fortune rollin`
It don`t matter where we`re goin`
East or west or south to Tennessee
(Gotta keep these wheels)
Wheels of fortune movin`
Keep on truckin`, keep on movin`
Gotta stay ahead of the finance company

Well, I was down-and-out until this friend a` mine
He said, "I got somethin` here, guaranteed ta change yer luck.
"With just a few thousand dollars you can get on time,
"I can put you in a brand-new diesel truck."

He says, "You can make a fortune in a year or two
"It`s easy; all ya haveta do is drive."
Well, I signed my name and I took the keys and then I knew:
I was gonna be the richest man alive!

[Chorus]
(Gotta keep these wheels)
Wheels of fortune rollin`
It don`t matter where we`re goin`
East or west or south to Tennessee
(Gotta keep these wheels)
Wheels of fortune movin`
Keep on truckin`, keep on movin`
Gotta stay ahead of the finance company

Now, I ain`t seen my lady in a month or two
This old rig may cost me my family
`Cause when I truck on home, you know just what they do?
They treat me just like I was company

Now I`m lost and lonely on this Interstate
My CB`s broke and I ain`t got a dime
I got a payment due and the finance comp`ny just won`t wait
I gotta keep this rig a-movin` all the time

[Chorus]
(Gotta keep these wheels)
Wheels of fortune rollin`
It don`t matter where we`re goin`
East or west or south to Tennessee
(Gotta keep these wheels)
Wheels of fortune movin`
Keep on truckin`, keep on movin`
Gotta stay ahead of the finance company
Gotta stay ahead of the finance company
