Wheels
Billy Vaughn & His Orchestra Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Spinning Wheel got to go 'round
Talkin' 'bout your troubles
It's a cryin' sin
Ride a painted pony
Let the Spinning Wheel spin
You got no money, you got no home
Spinning Wheel all alone
You never learn
Ride a painted pony
Let the Spinning Wheel turn
Did you find your 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 colors that are real
Someone is waiting just for you
Spinning Wheel spinning true
Drop all you troubles by the river side
The song "Wheels" by Billy Vaughn and his Orchestra is a very insightful and deep song with an intense meaning. The lyrics start by saying "what goes up must come down, spinning wheel got to go round", this means that in life, everything has its ups and downs, just like a wheel which keeps spinning. The vocalist then says "talkin' 'bout your troubles, it's a cryin' sin" which means that it is a bad idea to always talk about your troubles as it only makes things worse. The line "ride a painted pony, let the spinning wheel spin" can be interpreted as taking a ride on life's journey and letting things happen without worrying too much.
The chorus then goes on to say that even though you may not have money or a home, you should still ride on the Spinning Wheel of life and let it take you wherever it goes. The lyrics also state that talking about one's troubles doesn't help much, and it is better to let go of those troubles and ride the Spinning Wheel of life. The second verse of the song talks about finding one's directing sign and letting it guide them towards their true colors. If one is on the straight and narrow highway, they might not see the reflecting sign and the colors that are real. There's someone waiting for you on this Spinning Wheel of life, and one should just drop all their troubles by the river side.

I used to hear & listen to this wonderful instrumental guitar music on the radio of our neighbor when I was little back in 1963. Now I'm 68. It's like time travel through songs & memories.
