Wheels
Justin Moore Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Stood in the driveway 'til I saw it her way
But tonight, she let the gravel fly
Tore out on the two lane, hope it ain't too late
Highway reflectors bouncing off the headlights
Gotta do what I gotta do to make these twenties whine
Wheels
Wheels
Got the hammer down, got the Firestones burnin'
Out the windshield
I'm searchin' for her taillights out in the distance
She's out there somewhere and time is tickin'
I pray this much I ain't just spinnin' my
Wheels
Green light would sure be nice
Still gonna gun it but I won't have to run it
305 letting all 8 fly
I pray a little harder every mile marker
She'll wake up beside me wearing my tank top
Gotta do what I gotta do to get her I won't stop
Wheels
Just as fast as I can go gotta keep 'em turnin'
Wheels
Got the hammer down got the Firestones burnin'
Out the windshield
I'm searchin' for her taillights out in the distance
She's out there somewhere and time is tickin'
I pray this much I ain't just spinnin' my
Pray this much I ain't just spinnin' my
Wheels
Spinnin' my wheels
No I ain't just spinnin' my wheels
Wheels
Just as fast as I can go gotta keep 'em turnin'
Wheels
Got the hammer down got the Firestones burnin'
Out the windshield
I'm searchin' for her taillights out in the distance
She's out there somewhere and time is tickin'
I pray this much I ain't just spinnin' my
Pray this much I ain't just spinnin' my
Pray this much I ain't just spinnin' my
Wheels
Spinnin' my wheels
No I ain't just spinnin' my wheels
The lyrics to Justin Moore's song "Wheels" tell the story of a person who regrets a decision they made in their relationship and is desperately trying to make amends. The singer realizes that they should have set aside their pride and listened to their partner's perspective. However, it's now too late, as their partner has driven away in anger. The singer takes off in pursuit, driving as fast as they can, hoping to catch up and reconcile. They are focused on finding their partner's taillights in the distance, aware that time is ticking and the chance for reconciliation may slip away. The song expresses the singer's determination to do whatever it takes to make things right and their fear of spinning their wheels, putting in effort without making any progress.

Tonight, shoulda swallowed my pride
Tonight, I should have been more humble and willing to compromise
Stood in the driveway 'til I saw it her way
I stayed in the driveway until I understood and accepted her perspective
But tonight, she let the gravel fly
But tonight, she sped away in anger
Tore out on the two lane, hope it ain't too late
Drove aggressively on the two-lane road, hoping I can catch up to her before it's too late
Highway reflectors bouncing off the headlights
As I drive, the highway reflectors bounce off my headlights, creating a mesmerizing visual
Gotta do what I gotta do to make these twenties whine
I have to push my car's velocity to make the tires screech
Wheels
My car's wheels
Just as fast as I can go gotta keep 'em turnin'
I need to maintain maximum speed to keep the wheels rolling
Got the hammer down, got the Firestones burnin'
I'm pressing the accelerator pedal hard, causing the Firestone tires to grip the road
Out the windshield
Looking through the car's windshield
I'm searchin' for her taillights out in the distance
I'm scanning the road ahead, hoping to spot her car's taillights in the distance
She's out there somewhere and time is tickin'
She is somewhere ahead of me, and I don't have much time to catch up
I pray this much I ain't just spinnin' my
I hope that I'm not just wasting my time and energy
Green light would sure be nice
It would be great if I could encounter a green traffic light
Still gonna gun it but I won't have to run it
I'll still accelerate aggressively, but I won't have to run through a red light
305 letting all 8 fly
My car, with its 305 horsepower engine, is unleashing all its power
I pray a little harder every mile marker
With every mile marker I pass, I pray with greater intensity
She'll wake up beside me wearing my tank top
I hope that when I find her, she'll wake up next to me, wearing my tank top
Gotta do what I gotta do to get her I won't stop
I will do whatever it takes to win her back and I won't give up
Pray this much I ain't just spinnin' my
I hope that my efforts and prayers are not in vain
Spinnin' my wheels
Metaphorically, I hope I'm not stuck in the same place without making progress
No I ain't just spinnin' my wheels
No, I'm not merely wasting time and energy
