Movin` On — текст песни (Emmylou Harris)

(Hank Snow)

That big eighteen-wheeler, 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 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 rattler 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 gonna ease my mind, put me there on time
And keep rollin` on

I`ve told 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`ve broken your vow, and it`s all over now
So I`m movin` on

You`ve 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 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
