"Helen Wheels" is a song by Paul McCartney and Wings. The song was named after Paul and Linda McCartney's Land Rover, which they nicknamed "Helen Wheels".
The song was released as a single prior to Band on the Run and therefore was not included on the original British release of the album. However, it was included on the original American release and also the 25th anniversary version. The song was also included on Wingspan. The song peaked at number 10 in the United States on 12 January 1974 and at number 12 in the United Kingdom charts.
According to the book Paul McCartney in his own words published in 1976, "Helen wheels is our land rover. It's a name we gave to our land rover, which is a trusted vehicle that gets us around Scotland. It takes us up to the Shetland Islands and down to London. The song starts off in Glasgow, and it goes past Carlisle, goes to Kendal, Liverpool, Birmingham and London. It's the route coming down from our Scottish farm to London, so it's really the story of the trip down. Little images along the way. Liverpool is on the West coast of England, so that is all that means."

Plot: Who could have guessed that a bunch of men in dresses would breath life into the movement to win equal rights for gay men and lesbians? Certainly not the police who raided the Stonewall Inn, a popular "drag" bar in Greenwich Village. After a long history of police raids, extortion, and brutality, a gaggle of drag queens at the Stonewall decide they have had enough and begin to riot when the police try to load them into a paddy wagon. Told by "La Miranda" (Hector), a regular customer at the Stonewall Inn, the film is a recounting of events that led up to that fateful day in 1969. "Matty Dean" is the handsome angry young man that La Miranda meets at the Stonewall one day and with whom she/he quickly falls in love. "Bostonia" is the self-styled Queen Mother of the drag queens and guides each initiate gently "into the life." Her lover, Vinnie, is the closeted proprietor of the Stonewall. His tragic response to the suffocation he feels bearing down on him from a homophobic world -- perhaps as much as anything else -- sparks the riots. This is the Stonewall Riots "As Told By La Miranda".

By Paul McCartney
Said Farewell To My Last Hotel, It Was Never Much Kind Of Abode
Glasgow Town Never Brought Me Down When I Was Heading Out On The Road
Carlisle City Never Looked So Pretty And The Kendal Freeway's Fast
Slowdown Driver, Want To Stay Alive, I Want To Make This Journey Last.
Chorus
Helen, Hell On Wheels, Ain't Nobody Else Gonna Know The Way She Feels
Helen, Hell On Wheels, And They Never Gonna Take Her Away
M6 South Down To Liverpool, Where They Play The West Coast Sound,
Sailor Sam He Came From Birmingham But He Never Will Be Found
Doing Fine When A London Sign Greets Me Like A Long Lost Friend,
Mister Motor Won't You Check Her Out, She's Got To Take Me Back Again.
Chorus
