That called on me to call on Hell.
That called on me to call on them.
Wheels on fire,
Burning down the road
Better roll up my mystery,
Let this little town explode
This wheel's on fire,
Rolling down the road.
Best notify my next of kin,
This wheel shall explode.
He also recorded/co-wrote this song with The Band.
Wheels on fire
Burning down the road
Best notify our nest again
This wheel shall explode.
This wheel's on fire
Rolling down the road
Best notify my next of kin
This wheel shall explode.
Let's kill this fire,
while bowling in the road,
Best mortify my next of kin,
This wheel shall explode
This Wheel's on Fire,
Rolling down the road,
best notify my next of kin...
this wheel shall explode
Please, notify my next of kin, this WILL shall explode.
Wheels on fire,
Rolling down the road.
Best notify my next of kin,
This wheel shall explode.
I always sang it like I see it in lyrics here online. "Best, notify my next of kin, this wheel shall explode" BUT just singing in the shower I mistakenly (or did I) sing "Please, notify my next of kin, this WILL shall explode!" Think about it. It makes sense and is very funny.
