I’m Moving On

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