Randy Crawford - Hymn Of The Big Wheel lyrics

The big wheel keeps on turnin' On a simple line day by day The earth spins on its axis One man struggles while another relaxes There's a hole in my soul like a cavity Seems like the world is out together just by gravity The wheel keeps turning, the sky is rearranging Look my son the weather is changing I'd like to feel that you could be free Look up at the blue skies beneath a new tree Sometime again you'll turn green and the sea turns red My son I said the power of axis over my head The big wheel keeps on turning On a simple line day by day The earth spins on its axis One man struggles while another relaxes We sang about the sun and danced among the trees And we listened to the whisper of the city on the breeze Will you cry anymore in a lead-free zone Down within the shadows where the factories drone On the surface of the wheel they build another town And so the green come tumbling down Yes, close your eyes and hold me tight And I'll show you a sunset sometime again The big wheel keeps on turning On a simple line day by day The earth spins on its axis One man struggles while another relaxes As a child's silent prayer, my hope hides in disguise While satellites and cameras watch from the skies An acid drop of rain recycled from the sea It washed away my shadow, burnt a hole in me And all the king's men cannot put it back again But the ghetto sun where nature lies Will mend my soul Sometime again The big wheel keeps on turning On a simple line day by day The earth spins on its axis One man struggles while another relaxes My son I said the big wheel keeps on turning On a simple line day by day The earth spins on its axis One man struggles while another relaxes Big wheel On a simple line The earth spins Blue
