Wheel Of Fortune

Ray Charles · Rare Genius: The Undiscovered Masters [1959]

The wheel of fortune

Goes spinning around

Will the arrow point my way?

Tell me, will this be my day?



The wheel of fortune

Please don't pass me by

Let me know the magic of

A kiss and a sign



While the wheel is

Spinning, spinning, spinning

I'll not dream' of winning

Fortune or fame



While the wheel is

Turning, turning, turning

You know I'm gone be

Yearning, yearning, yearning

For love precious flame



Oh, wheel of fortune

You know I'm hoping somehow

Oh yeah, yeah, if you ever smile on me

Please let it be now



Oh, get it

[Incomprehensible]Wait a minute



While the wheel is

Spinning, spinning, spinning

I'll not dream of winning

Fortune of fame



While the wheel is

Turning, turning, turning

You know I'm gone be

Yearning, yearning, yearning

For love precious flame



Oh, wheel of fortune

Call her, my son, call her

I know she can hear you

I'm hoping somehow

Oh, I'm sure she heard you



If you ever smile on me

Listen, girl, please let it be now
