D That big eight-wheeler, rollin' down the track
Means your true-lovin' daddy ain't{D7} comin' back
I'm movin'{G} on; I'll soon be D gone.
You were A7 flyin' too high; for my little old sky,
So I'm movin' D on.
That big loud whistle, as it blew and blew
Said hello Alabama, We're{D7} comin' to you
And we're movin'{G} on; oh, hear my{D} song
You had{A7} the laugh on me, so I've set you free
And I'm movin'{D} on.
Mister Engineer, take that throttle in hand
This rattler's the fastest in the{D7} southern land
Keep movin'{G} on; keep rollin'{D} on
You're gon{A7}na ease my mind,so put me there on time
Keep rollin'{D} on.
I warned you baby, from time to time
But you just wouldn't listen or D7 pay me no mind
Now I'm movin' {G}on, I'm rollin' {D}on
You have A7 broken your vow, and it's all over now
So I'm movin'{D} on.
But someday baby, when you've had your play
You're gonna want your daddy, but your{D7} daddy will say
Keep movin' {G}on, you stayed away too{D} long
I'm{A7} through with you; too bad you're blue
Keep movin'{D} on.
