Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Know what you really need
But you can't get enough
Too many mouths to feed
Well, ain't life tough?
Call this survival
Don't pray for a sign
[Verse 2]
Know what you really want
You can't get it back down on the waterfront
Now, watch out, Jack Night's on the main line
And rust on the rail
[Chorus]
I see them swindle this town
I see 'em tumbling down
I've seen red rivers, fire and steel
I feel the thunder chained to the wheel
[Verse 3]
Know what you mean to me
Goes deeper than that
Can't fight your destiny
Know where it's at
Don't look for lightning
Or pray for a sign
[Chorus]
I see them swindle this town
I've seen them tumble it down
I heard the legend, I watched the skies
Feel the power, the flame in your eyes
I've seen red rivers, fire and steel
I feel the thunder chained to the wheel
[Verse 4]
Wheel
Chained to the wheel
Chained to the wheel
[Verse 5]
Know what you really need
You can't get enough
Too many mouths to feed
Ain't life tough?
Call this survival
Don't pray for a sign
[Chorus]
I see them swindle this town
And I've seen them tumble it down
I've seen red rivers, fire and steel
I feel the thunder chained to the wheel
I heard the legend, I watched the skies
Feel the power, flame in your eyes
I've seen red rivers, fire and steel
I feel the thunder chained to the wheel
[Outro]
Wheel
Chained to the wheel
Chained to the wheel
Chained to the wheel
Chained to the wheel
Chained to the wheel
Chained to the wheel
