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
|

Chained To The Wheel
