Текст песни Hell on Wheels - Judy Collins

In my cowboy boots and my Livers
Hair hanging down my back
Driving that 53 Chevy
Rolling down that mountain track
Threw a couple back at the Stanley
Drinking with a long lost friend
Back in the car, spinning my wheels
Cutting through the dusty wind

I didn't see it coming, hell on wheels
Carrying an heavy load
Didn't see it coming, hell on wheels
Nowhere to go

The gravel and the grieve of my past
Trailing in the rear view mirror
The only house for 20 miles
I was getting nearer and nearer
Saw two little children sitting in the dirt
Missed them by a mere few feet
Their arms reaching out for daddy
That nightmare still plays in my sleep

I didn't see it coming, hell on wheels
Carrying an heavy load
I didn't see it coming, hell on wheels
Nowhere to go

Out of the house he came yelling
"I'm calling the cops on you"
Waving his fists, while I gunned that car
Down the road and breaking through

I pray for those children every day
Innocent babies they were
If I was going just a little faster
We would have been gone for sure

You never see it coming, hell on wheels
You always think you're in control
Someday you'll realize you're hell on wheels
And know you have to go slow

I didn't see it coming, hell on wheels
Carrying an heavy load
Didn't see it coming, hell on wheels
Nowhere to go

Nowhere to go
Nowhere to go
Nowhere to go
