The Big Wheels by Jimmy LaFave Lyrics

So you feel mixed up and a little crazy
Hey, I don't know what to do
I spend my whole life just running around in circles
The original rebel without a clue

And when you lose sense of direction
It becomes so hard to renew
And you may find me on the road tonight
But we all know that's nothing new

'Cause when the big wheels start to turn
There is a lesson to be learned
And I'll take my educated guess
Loving you would always be the best

I was driving through Nebraska
I saw the sky turn from black to grey to blue
And a deer came bounding down by the byway
With a grace and beauty that was you

And later in that sandhill morning
I passed another highway cross
And I thought of the ones that I've loved in my life
And I thought of all the ones that I've loved that I've lost
When the big wheels start to turn
There are lessons to be learned
Of all the dreams I've left behind
The one of you stays on my mind

So you feel mixed up and a little crazy
Baby, baby, me too
I spend my whole life just running around in great big circles
The original rebel without a clue

When the big wheels start to roll
There's no telling just where they'll go
I just keep following the signs
With a gypsy heart and an open mind

'Cause when the big wheels start to turn
There is always one lesson you can learn
And if we do not meet again
My thoughts of you will never end
