Grammy-winning hit for Blood Sweat & Tears - 1970

lyrics

What goes up must come down
Spinnin' wheel got to go 'round
Talkin' 'bout your troubles, it's a cryin' sin
Ride a painted pony, let the spinnin' wheel spin

Ya got no money and
ya got no home
Spinnin' wheel, all alone
Talkin' 'bout your troubles and
ya never learn
Ride a painted pony, let the spinnin' wheel turn

Did ya find the directing sign
On the straight and narrow highway?
Would you mind a reflecting sign?
Just let it shine within your mind
And show you the colours that are real.

Someone is waitin' just for you
Spinnin' wheel, spinnin' true
Drop all your troubles by the riverside
Catch a painted pony on the spinnin' wheel ride.

Did ya find the directing sign
On the straight and narrow highway?
Would you mind a reflecting sign?
Just let it shine within your mind
And show you the colours that are real.

Someone's waitin' just for you
Spinnin' wheel, spinnin' true
Drop all your troubles by the riverside
Ride a painted pony, let the spinnin' wheel fly
