That big eight wheeler a rollin' down the track
|
Means your true lovin' daddy ain't comin' back
|
'Cause I'm movin' on, I'll soon be gone
|
You were flyin' too high for my little old sky
|
So I'm movin' on
|
|
That big loud whistle as it blew and blew
|
Said hello to the Southland, we're comin' to you
|
And we're movin' on, oh hear my song
|
You had the laugh on me, so I've set you free
|
And I'm movin' on
|
|
Mister Fireman, won't you please listen to me?
|
'Cause I got a pretty mama in Tennessee
|
Keep movin' me on, keep rollin' on
|
So shovel the coal, let this rattle a roll
|
And keep movin' me on
|
|
Mister Engineer take that throttle in hand
|
This rattler's the fastest in the southern land
|
To keep movin' me on, keep rollin' on
|
You're gonna ease my mind, put me there on time
|
And keep rollin' on
|
|
I warned you baby from time to time
|
But you just wouldn't listen or pay me no mind
|
Now I'm movin' on, I'm rollin' on
|
You have broken your vow and it's all over now
|
So I'm movin' on
|
|
You switched your engine now I ain't got time
|
For a triflin' woman on my main line
|
'Cause I'm movin' on, you done your daddy wrong
|
I've warned you twice, now you can settle the price
|
'Cause I'm movin' on
|
|
But someday baby when you've had your play
|
You're gonna want your daddy but your daddy will say
|
Keep movin' on, you stayed away too long
|
I'm through with you, too bad you're blue
|
Keep movin' on
|
|
