I left my sweetheart a long time ago She cried and she pleaded and begged me not to go We had a quarrel and I started to roam Big wheels big wheels carry me home
Oh big wheels a-rolling carry me back I know my baby's waiting down by the railroad track I can see old drivers I hear old whistles moan Big wheels big wheels carry me home
I dreamed of her in Texas Nevada was the same Oh way up in New Hampshire I even called her name She said she still loved me when I called her on the phone Big wheels big wheels carry me home
Repeat #2
If I could travel over to England or to Spain Or way down in the South Seas I know it'd be the same In Germany or Switzerland or in the town of Rhome I'd think of her and tell the world carry me home
