Mary Gauthier - Wheel Inside The Wheel - Sözleri

Written by Mary Gauthier









The parade of souls is marching across the sky

Their heat and their light bathed in blue as they march by



The All Stars play "When the Saints Go Marching In"



A second line forms and they wave white hankies in the wind









Satchmo takes a solo, and he flashes his million dollar smile

Marie Laveau promenades with Oscar Wilde



Big Funky Stella twirls her little red umbrella to the beat

As the soul parade winds its way down Eternity Street









Souls ain't born, souls don't die



Soul ain't made of earth, ain't made of water, ain't made of sky



So, ride the flaming circle, wind the golden reel

And roll on, brother, in the wheel inside the wheel











Mardi Gras Indians chant in the streets at sundown

Spyboy meets Spyboy, and Big Chief meets Big Chief uptown



They circle and sway in their rainbow colored feathers and beads



They prance like peacocks, children of slavery freed









Souls ain't born, souls don't die

Soul ain't made of earth, ain't made of water, ain't made of sky





Roll on, brother, in the wheel inside the wheel

Ride the flaming circle, wind the golden reel



The Krewe of the Crossbones parades into the midnight sun







They march through the fire and come out beating homemade drums



While the French Quarter Queens in their high-heeled drag disguise



Sing "Over the Rainbow" 'til Judy Garland quivers and sighs







Souls ain't born, souls don't die



Soul ain't made of earth, ain't made of water, ain't made of sky

Ride the flaming circle, wind the golden reel





And roll on, brother, in the wheel inside the wheel





Flambeau dancers light the walkway to Jean Pierre's





There's a party tonight and all the girls are gonna be there



Sipping wormwood concoctions, drinking absinthe and talking trash



It's a red carpet, black tie, all night, celestial bash







Souls ain't born, souls don't die



Soul ain't made of earth, ain't made of water, ain't made of sky



Ride the flaming circle, wind the golden reel



And roll on, brother, in the wheel inside the wheel

I said roll on, brother, in the wheel inside the wheel
