Spinning Wheel

(album: A Natural Woman - 1969)

What goes up, must come down.
Spinning wheel, gotta go 'round.
Talking 'bout your troubles,
It's a crying sin.
Ride a painted pony,
Let the spinning wheel spin.

Ya got no money,
And ya, ya got no home.
Spinning wheel, all alone.
Talking 'bout your troubles,
And ya, ya never learn.
Ride a painted pony,
Let the spinning wheel turn.

Did ya find the directing sign,
On the straight and narrow highway?
Would you mind a reflecting sign?
Just let it shine, within your mind,
And show you the colors that are real.

Someone is waiting just for you.
Spinning wheel spinning true.
Drop all your troubles by the river side.
Catch a painted pony,
On the spinning wheel ride.

Someone's waiting just for you.
Spinning wheel spinning true.
Drop all your troubles by the river side,
Ride a painted pony,
Let the spinning wheel fly.
