-4   3    3      3   3   3   3   -3   -3   -3 
That big eight wheel-er roll-in’ down the track 
  -3   -3   -4   -4 -4   -4 -4   5  -4  -5 -4   -3 
Means your true lov-in’ dad-dy ain’t a com-in’ back
 -2  -2  -2  1  -3’’  3   2   -1 
I’m mov-in’ on, I’ll soon be gone
-1   -3   -3 -4   -4   5   -4 -4  5  -4   -4 -3   
You were fly-in’ too high for my lit-tle ole sky 
-1  3  -3  -3’’ -2 
So I’m mov-in’ on
  
 -4   3    3    3    3  3  3 -3    -3  -3 
That big loud whist-le as it blew and blew 
 -3   -3  -4 -4 -4 -4   5  -4  -5 -4  -3  -2
Said hel-lo Ala-bam-a we’re a com-in’ to you 
 3    3     3  3   1 -3’’ 3    2  -1 
And we’re mov-in’ on, oh hear my song
  -1    -3  -3   -4  -4  5  -4  -4   5  -4   -3 
You’ve had the laugh on me, so I’ve set you free 
 -1   3  -3 -3’’ -2 
And, I’m mov-in on 
 
Mist-er Fire-man won’t you please list-en to me? 
Cause I got a swe-et ma-ma in ten-nes-see 
Keep mov-in’ on, keep roll-in’ a-long 
So sho-vel the coal, let this rat-tle a roll 
And keep mov-in’ me on
  
Mis-ter En-gin-eer take the throt-tle in hand
This ratt-ler’s the fast-est in the south-ern land 
To keep me roll-in’ on, keep roll-in’ on
Your gon-na ease my mind, put me there on time
And keep roll-in’ on
  
I warn-ed you ba-by from time to time
But you just would-n’t list-en or pay me no mind 
Now I’m mov-in’ on, I’m roll-in’ on
You-ve brok-en your vow and it’s all ov-er now 
So I’m mov-in’ on
   
You switch-ed your en-gine now I ain’t got time 
For a trif-lin’ wo-man on my main line
Cause I’m mov-in’ on, you done your dad-dy wrong 
I’ve warn-ed you twice, now you can set-tle the price 
Cause I’m mov-in’ on
   
But some-day ba-by when you-ve had your play
Your gon-na want your dad-dy but, your dad-dy will say 
Keep mov-in’ on, you stay-ed a-way too long 
I’m through with you, too bad your blue 
Keep mov-in’ on
