The Spinning Wheel - Cotton Jones

I woke up to a dream

hung my feet in the flames

I saw things no man should ever see.

I was fallin' in love,

or at least thought I was

all along, I’ve been lost in some velvet dream.

I put all things where they belong.

Indeed I was right, indeed I was wrong.

I heard some silver song

dripping down from the sun

for the first time in my mind

it all was real.

I saw sunbeams bend

in the mouth of some friend

all along he’s been asleep on

the spinning wheel.

I put all things where they belong

indeed I was right, indeed I was wrong.

Oh, hands of the sun

some ten thousand strong,

you keep turnin' me off

and turnin' me on.

You keep turnin' me off

and turnin' me on.

Always turnin' me off

and turnin' me on
