I met a man who bought up land
Wherever his feet would tread
He asked me to El Paso
Said, "I could stay on his spread"
He has horses and cows and tractors and plows
And all kinds of money to burn
But how can I get to Texas?
When my wheels won't turn
How can I get to Texas?
When my wheels won't turn
They just won't move
My wheels won't turn
They just won't move
There was a lady from Spain, who had a fine frame
Then she moved to Hollywood
She said, "Come and stay for a week and a day"
I said, "I did not think, I could"
She said, "The sunshine's fine"
I could spend some time, there are lessons I could learn
But how can I get to L.A.?
When my wheels won't turn
How can I get to L.A.?
When my wheels won't turn
They just won't move
I'm standin' still
'Cause my wheels won't turn
I'm not in love
And my fuel won't burn for you
Yeah, my wheels won't turn, let's go
At a college of knowledge, I tried to learn
All the tricks to beat the system
I'd hide in nooks and memorize my books
'Till I knew I'd never never miss them
Eventually I got my degree
But the real thing I did learn
You just can't hit your home run
If your wheels won't turn
You just can't hit your home run
If your wheels won't turn
Got to get movin'
There was a man in white who did things right
Now he watches from above, he said
"Here is the way that I want you to pray"
And the way to live and love
So I saw the light and did things right
But the candle would not burn
Tell me, how can I get to heaven
If my wheels won't turn
Tell me, how can I get to heaven
If my wheels won't turn
They just won't move
I'm standin' still
'Cause my wheels won't turn
I'm not in love
And my fuel won't burn for you
Ah, my wheels won't turn
Won't turn for you
Ah, my wheels won't turn
My wheels won't turn
Hey, my wheels won't turn
My wheels won't turn
Hey my wheels won't turn
How can I get to Texas?
How can I get to L.A.?
How can I hit my home run?
How can I get to heaven?
My wheels won't turn
No, my wheels won't turn
Yeah, my wheels won't turn
Mama, my wheels won't turn, ooh, won't turn
My wheels won't turn
My wheels won't turn
Ah, my wheels won't turn
Ah, my fuel won't burn
How can I get to Texas?
How can I get to L.A.?
How can I hit my home run?
How can I get to heaven?
When my wheels won't turn
Ah, my wheels won't turn
Bop, Bop
My wheels won't turn
Bop, Bop
My wheels won't turn
I'm spinnin', you got me spinnin'
Whoo, got me spinnin'
Ah, got me spinnin'
Yeah, my wheels won't turn
Come on, my wheels won't turn
Come on, my wheels won't turn
Come on, my wheels won't turn
Ah hey, my wheels won't turn
Yeah, my wheels won't turn
My heart won't turn, I did get burned
Yeah, my wheels won't turn
Yeah, my wheels won't turn
Yeah, my wheels won't turn
Yeah, my wheels won't turn
How can I get to?
