Lyrics
Hill is steep ahead Push the pedals down Sweat upon my brow Never will I frown Wheels turn strong, wheels turn strong Climb the hill, sing a song Wheels turn strong, wheels turn strong Morning light will lead me on Market bags are tied Bread is on the rack Jah is on the road Keeping me on track Wheels turn strong, wheels turn strong Climb the hill, sing a song Wheels turn strong, wheels turn strong Morning light will lead me on One more turn, one more mile Top is near, rest a while Every hill I climb up slow Makes me stronger, watch me go Wheels turn strong, wheels turn strong Climb the hill, sing a song Wheels turn strong, wheels turn strong Morning light will lead me on
