Wheels of a Dream

I see his face
 I hear his heartbeat
 I look in those eyes
 How wise they seem
 Well, when he is old enough
 I will show him America
 And he will ride
 On the wheels of a dream
 We'll go down South
 Go down South
 And see your people
 See my folks
 Won't they take to him
 They'll take to him
 Like cats to cream
 Then we'll travel on from there
 California or who knows where
 And we will ride
 On the wheels of a dream
 Yes, the wheels are turning for us, girl
 And the times are starting to roll
 Any man can get where he wants to
 If he's got some fire in his soul
 We'll see justice, Sarah
 And plenty of men
 Who will stand up
 And give us our due
 Oh, Sarah, it's more than promises.
 Sarah, it must be true
 A country that let's a man like me
 Own a car, raise a child, build a life with you
 With you
 With you
 Beyond that road
 Beyond this lifetime
 That car full of hope
 Will always gleam
 With the promise of happiness
 And the freedom he'll live to know
 He'll travel with head held high
 Just as far as his heart can go
 And he will ride
 Our son will ride
 On the wheels of a dream
