When the Wheels Don't Move Lyrics


Advisory - the following lyrics contain explicit language:
Who'll work the assembly line?
Who'll pull the freight on time?
Who'll work the all night haul?
Who'll explain it all when the wheels don't move?Bigger chariots didn't save Rome
Easy money didn't stay at home
They said the iron horse would always roam
Who'll tell the children when the wheels don't move?Man's power over nature
Hubris and greed let the fossil fuels burn
No way to keep the wings in flight
When the turbine engines don't moveGoing green a casino catch phrase

Ethanol's made of smoke and mirrors
Who makes the decision to feed the tanks
And not the mouths when the wheels don't move?
When the wheels don't moveRed planet as salvation
Divine hope turns to depredation
Who'll be left to make that station?
Devoid of God and nation we trust
The wheels don't moveWhen wheels don't move
When the wheels don't move
When the wheels don't move

Enjoy the lyrics !!!

Son Volt is an alternative country group which formed in 1994 in St. Louis, Missouri. The band currently consists of Jay Farrar (vocals, guitar), Chris Masterson (guitar), Andrew Duplantis (bass, vocals), Mark Spencer (keyboards) and Dave Bryson (drums). Farrar is the only original member remaining in the band. Son Volt formed after the breakup of the band Uncle Tupelo, owing to the simmering creative differences between songwriters Farrar and Jeff Tweedy. The group's members lived in Minneapolis, St Louis, and New Orleans at the time.
