Lyrics
Rain come heavy on the road Driver keeps on rolling Wipers going back and forth The morning is still holding Keep the wheels turning, rain keep falling Keep the wheels turning, work is calling Keep the wheels turning, we will get there Steady through the water, steady through the prayer Water to the ankle Baker on his way Nurse and market trader Carry on the day Keep the wheels turning, rain keep falling Keep the wheels turning, work is calling Keep the wheels turning, we will get there Steady through the water, steady through the prayer Rain will pass, rain will pass Brother, hold the line Rain will pass, rain will pass Sun will surely shine Mud upon my boots now Bread upon the seat Every honest mile Makes the journey sweet Keep the wheels turning, rain keep falling Keep the wheels turning, work is calling Keep the wheels turning, we will get there Steady through the water, steady through the prayer Keep the wheels turning Steady through the prayer
