Wheels Of Fortune

I've made a few mistakes by pitchin pennies
I've struck some matches down some dirty streets
the fires of love I've lit have burned to ashes
and now they're only smolderin at my feet
I've made a few mistakes by flippin coins
I've got the longest livin losin streak
but if you'll be a gal of mine you can make my money shine
come on baby let that Lincoln penny speak
babe you can turn my wheels of fortune
til you get some wheel of fortune all your own
but don't you turn the wheel of love unless you're watchin
cause a blind love can turn your heart to stone
I've made a few mistakes by singin love songs
when I should'a been just strummin my guitar
I used to wish on magic...I used to wish on wishin wells
but now I'm just wishin on a star
babe you can turn my wheels of fortune
til you get some wheel of fortune all your own
but don't you turn the wheel of love unless you're watchin
cause a blind love can turn your heart to stone
