Spinning Wheel

 "Spinning Wheel” 1969 single by Blood, Sweat & Tears

What goes up, must come down
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 and you, you got no home
Spinning wheel, all alone
Talkin' 'bout your troubles and you, you never learn
Ride a painted pony, let the spinning wheel turn

Did you find a 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 through
Drop all your troubles by the riverside
Catch a painted pony on the spinning wheel ride
Ha!

Someone's waiting just for you
Spinning wheel spinning through
Drop all your troubles by the riverside
Ride a painted pony, let the spinning wheel fly

Wheels spinning here. We are doing our best by Skipper, by Figgy, by ourselves, by weary old Sugar and sprightly young Nina. A woman and a cameraman from Voice of America came to our home today to interview Dan and briefly, me, about his 60-Second Novel path started about 40 years ago.

Just handed in a story for ReadersDigest.com.

Good night.
