That Old Wheel

by Johnny Cash

John R. "Johnny" Cash (February 26, 1932 – September 12, 2003), was an American singer-songwriter, actor, and author, who has been called one of the most influential musicians of the 20th century. Although he is primarily remembered as a country music icon, his songs and sound spanned many other genres including rockabilly and rock and roll—especially early in his career—as well as blues, folk, and gospel. This crossover appeal led to Cash being inducted in the Country Music Hall of Fame, the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, and Gospel Music Hall of Fame.

That old wheel is gonna roll around once more
When it does it will even up the score
Don't be weak, as they sew, they will reap
Turn the other cheek and don't give in
That old wheel will roll around again

When love is gone and the one you thought would stay
Does you wrong, and you're left alone to pay
The price is high
But somehow you'll survive, don't give in
That old wheel will roll around again

There'll be times, hard to control
And you'll find you'll hurt down in your soul
There'll be those who'll be glad to see you down
But don't give in, that old wheel will roll around again

Roll around, around, again, again
