Silver Wheels^3 Songtext
von Betty Elders

Passing houses all the same
I see faces without names
Well, old train, you seem to know that I
Can′t turn around and go back home
Can't turn around and go back home

And your silver wheels just keep on turnin′, turnin'
Roll on faster as you go
Locomotive engine churnin', churnin′
Down the line, New Mexico

Vague and different memories
Seems that′s all that's left to me
To carry with the part that′s aching dull inside
Silver liner got to ride
Silver liner got to ride


And those silver wheels just keep on turnin', turnin′
Roll on faster as you go
And the tears, they just keep burnin', burnin′
I can't seem to stop the flow

How long have I been your train?
Not long enough to ease my pain
So I guess I'll have another for the road
It′s just a mile to Santa Fe
One more mile to Santa Fe

And those silver wheels just keep on turnin′, turnin'
Roll on faster as you go
Locomotive engine churnin′, churnin'
Down the line, New Mexico
And your silver wheels just keep on turnin′, turnin'
Roll on faster as you go
Locomotive engine churnin′, churnin'
Down the line, New Mexico
