Nothing but the Wheel - Peter Wolf

When I’m past the boulevards

Out here underneath the stars

I’ve been flyin' past the houses, farms and fields

Leavin' all I know, back home

Rushin' through the cold night air

I’m holding on to nothin' but the wheel

Stayin' clear of the interstates

I’m seekin' out these old two lanes

And tryin' to explain the way I feel

'Til all at once it’s half past three

And it’s down to the trust and me

And I’m holdin' on to nothing but the wheel

I’ve been trying to drive you off my mind

Let it that way be, I can leave it all behind

An' 41 goes on and on

And the lights go winding in the dawn

And the sky’s the color now of polished steel

An' the only think I know for sure

You don’t want me anymore

Then I’m holdin' on to nothing but the wheel

I’ve been trying to drive you off my mind

An' let it that way baby, I can leave it all behind

And the only thing I know for sure

Is that you don’t want me anymore

An' I’m holdin' on to nothing but the wheel

An' I’m holdin' on to nothing but the wheel

Gettin' down old 41

An' 41 takes me on and on

An' the lights go winding in the dawn

An' I’m holdin' on in the corner, yeah

I’m holdin' on, holdin' on, holdin' on, holdin' on

An' the only thing I know for sure

Is you don’t want me anymore

An' I’m holding on to nothin' but the wheel
