[Lyric] Dead on a Wheel (Waylon Payne)

[Verse 1]
She's lying there dead on a wheel, right there in the brightness of the day
They reckon a disaster yeah, that's all that they say
As if she cannot hear
Well, all that people do is a throw a stone and knock her down
What a crying shame
Whatever happened to just giving a hand to someone who was in need?

[Chorus]
But the people all scream and they shout and they cheer as she's lying there bleeding
Her heart's dying dead on a wheel

[Verse2]
He's walking with his heart in his hands and his wholе life on his sleeve
All that he wantеd was a house and a home. Someone who would never leave him
He's a real good man he don't ever think of walking out

[Chorus]
But all that people do is throw a stone and knock him down and he's lying there bleeding and his heart's dying dead on a wheel

[Bridge]
Hey what if we started leaning on each other?
Remember that it's faith and kindness and love that help us make it through
Yeah! If we all started learning how to love one another
Maybe it could get better. Maybe it could get better
Yeah but life goes on. What are you gonna do?

She's lying there dead on a wheel. In the brightness of the day
He's walking with his heart in his hands
