Hands on the Wheel Songtext
von Willie Nelson

At a time when the world seems to be spinnin′
Hopelessly out of control
There's deceivers and believers and old in-betweeners
That seem to have no place to go

Well, it′s the same old song, it's right and it's wrong
And livin′ is just somethin′ that I do
And with no place to hide, I looked in your eyes
And I've found myself in you


I looked to the stars, tried all of the bars
And I′ve nearly gone up in smoke
Now my hand's on the wheel, I′ve something that's real
And I feel like I′m goin' home

And in the shade of an oak, down by the river
Sit an old man and a boy
Settin' sail, spinnin′ tales and fishin′ for whales
With a lady they both enjoy

Well, it's the same damn tune, it′s the man in the moon
It's the way that I feel about you
And with no place to hide, I looked in your eyes
And I′ve found myself in you


And I looked to the stars, tried all of the bars
And I've nearly gone up in smoke
Now my hand′s on the wheel, I've something that's real
And I feel like I′m goin′ home
