John Denver - Chained To The Wheel lyrics

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 - annie's song albums. Know what you really need You can't get enough Too many mouths to feed Ain't life enough Call this survival Don't pray for a sign Know what you really want You can't get it back Down on the water front Better watch out jack Nights on the mainline Rust on the rail I've seen 'em swindle this town I've seen 'em tumble it down I've seen red rivers, fire and steel I've felt the thunder chained to the wheel Know what you mean to me Goes deeper than that Can't fight your destiny Don't know where it's at Don't look for light'n Or pray for a sign I've heard the legends I've watched the skies I feel the power The flame in your eyes I've seen 'em swindle this town I've seen 'em tumble it down I've seen red rivers, fire and steel I've felt the thunder chained to the wheel Words by nick smith and music by joe camilleri
