lyrics

Wagon Wheels
Broken wheel from a covered wagon
Wooden spokes in the desert sand
Buried with their bones and horses
Far from home and the Promised land
No marker for their graveside
Nothing left for thieves to steal
Only hopes and dreams they left us
and pieces of a wagon wheel.

CHORUS:
Wagon wheels, wagon wheels
Keep on rolling, rolling on
One road ends and another opens
Wagon wheels, keep rolling on

Station wagon, dogs and children
Worn out tires and a broken man
Pull up to the Baptist churchyard
Woman walks up with her hat in hand.
Been two years of begging strangers
Borrowed clothes and shelter meals
They pray each day for new beginnings
Keep moving on these wagon wheels

CHORUS:

Wagon wheel from a Radio Flyer
In the woods where it had gone
Came loose on a summer morning
When a little girl wandered from her home
Whole town came to find her
Every day the search goes on
They’ll keep going ‘til they find some answers
to this wagon wheel lying all alone

CHORUS:
