Wheel of Hurt

About Wheel of Hurt

"The Wheel of Hurt" is the title of a popular song from 1966 (see 1966 in music). The song was written by Charles Singleton and Eddie Snyder. Two versions of "The Wheel of Hurt" were released in late 1966 at virtually the same time. One version was sung by Italian American singer Al Martino, and this was a modest hit, peaking at #59 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart and at #12 on the Billboard Easy Listening chart in late 1966. The second version of "The Wheel of Hurt" was by the American performer Margaret Whiting, a noted singer who had over 40 charting hit singles in the U. S. between 1946 and 1954. Released from her album of the same name, "The Wheel of Hurt" was Whiting's attempt at a comeback; in an interview with Billboard magazine from 1966, Whiting told Claude Hall that she "wanted to have a hit record again. Bobby Darin and Frank Sinatra proved it could be done." "The Wheel of Hurt" was Whiting's final song to hit the Top 40 on the Hot 100 chart, where it peaked at #26. The song also spent four weeks at #1 on the Easy Listening chart in November 1966. more »

(When the wheel of hurt comes wheeling round to you)

You're gonna know what it means to be lonely
You're gonna know what it means to be blue
You're gonna know how it feels to feel your heart breaking in two
When the wheel of hurt comes wheeling round to you

I'll see you're crying bitter tears one day baby
I'll hear you say you're so sorry we are through
I'll be the first one to have you because you'll need someone that's true
When the wheel of hurt comes wheeling round to you

You're gonna learn the truth the hard way but what you learn you'll always know
That it's bad luck to hurt somebody when that somebody loves you so

It may be today or it may be tomorrow
You'll have to pay when your payment is due
And maybe then you'll realize just how much pain you've put me through
When the wheel of hurt comes wheeling round to you
