[Intro]

Big wheels keep turning

They turn forever and ever


[Verse 1]

I've been thinkin' it over, so many times they say

You got it made they never understand

The answer lies within your soul

'Cause no one knows which side the coin will fall


[Chorus]

Big wheels turnin', baby, I know (Or not at all)

Big wheels turnin', baby, I know (Or not at all)

Big wheels turnin', turnin'


[Verse 2]

Save it for a rainy day for when the cold wind blows

To see how they run I thought they'd know

I tried my best, all I could do

But somehow, it was not enough for you


[Chorus]

Big wheels turnin', baby, I know (Oh, nothing but a wheel)

Big wheels turnin' (No, no, no)

Baby, I know (No, no, no)

Big wheels turnin', turnin'

Turnin', turnin', turnin'


[Bridge]

I remember the dead of night

A lonely light that shines upon the window

I see it all so clear, the tenderness, the silent tears

Out here in the pouring rain

Through cold dark waiting days, I see you standing there

I see the big wheels turnin', never endin', on and on they go


[Verse 3]

I think I'm goin' home

I think I'm gonna have to start again

It's rather sad, because I've looked around

Can't seem to find whatever's always rollin' through my mind


[Chorus]

Big wheels turnin', baby, I know (Through my mind)

Big wheels turnin', baby, I know

Big wheels turnin', turnin'

Turnin', turnin', turnin'


[Bridge]

I remember the dead of night

A lonely light that shines upon the window

Oh, I see it all so clear, the tenderness, the silent tears

Out here in the pouring rain

Through cold dark waiting days, I see you standing there

I see the big wheels turnin', never endin', on and on they go


[Outro]

Ooh, ooh

Big wheels, big wheels
