That big eight wheeler, rolling down the track
means your true loving daddy ain't comming back
'cause 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 southland, 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.
(Fiddle break)
Mister fireman won't you please listen to me
'cause 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 rattlers the fastest in the southern land
to keep moving me on, keep rolling on
you gonna ease my mind, put me there on time and keep rolling on.
(Guitar break)
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 aint got time
for a triflin' woman on my main line
'cause I'm moving on, you done your daddy wrong
I warned you twice now you can settle the price cause I'm moving on.
But someday baby when you had your play
your gonna want your daddy but your daddy will say
keep moving on, you stayed away too long
I'm through with you too bad your blue keep moving on.
(Fiddle fade)
