Hell On Wheels

(专辑： Spellbound - 2022)

In my cowboy boots and my Levi's
Hair hanging down my back
Driving that 53 Chevy
Rolling down that mountain track

Threw a couple back at the Stanley
Drinking with a long lost friend
Back in the car, spinning my wheels
Cutting through the dusty wind

I didn't see it coming
Hell on wheels
Carrying a heavy load
Didn't see it coming
Hell on wheels
Nowhere to go

The gravel and the grit of my past
Trailing in the rear-view mirror
The only house for twenty miles
I was getting nearer and nearer

Saw two little children sitting in the dirt
Missed them by a mere few feet
Their arms reaching out for daddy
That nightmare still plays in my sleep

I didn't see it coming
Hell on wheels
Carrying a heavy load
I didn't see it coming
Hell on wheels
Nowhere to go

Out of the house he came yelling
I'm calling the cops on you
Waving his fists while I gunned that car
Down the road and breaking through

I pray for those children every day
Innocent babes they were
If I was going just a little faster
We would have been gone for sure

You never see it coming
Hell on wheels
You always think you're in control
Someday you realize
You're hell on wheels
And you know you have to go slow

Didn't see it coming
Hell on wheels
Carrying a heavy load
Didn't see it coming
Hell on wheels
Nowhere to go

Nowhere to go
Nowhere to go
Nowhere to go
