[Verse 1]

     C
That big eight wheeler, rolling down the track
C
Means your true loving daddy ain't comming back
                  F                 C
'Cause I'm moving on - I'll soon be gone
         G                                                    C
You were flyin' too high for my little old sky, so I'm movin' on
 
[Verse 2]
C
That big loud whistle as it blew and blew
C
Said hello to the Southland, we're coming to you
                  F               C
When we're movin' on - oh hear my song
                     G                                       C
You had the laugh on me, so I've set you free and I'm movin' on

[Verse 3]
C
Mister fireman won't you please listen to me 
C
'Cause I got a purdy mama in Tennessee 
               F                 C
Keep movin' me on - keep rollin' on
    G                                                        C
So shovel the coal, let this rattler roll and keep movin' me on
 
[Verse 4]
C
Mister engineer take that throttle in hand
C
This rattlers the fastest in the Southern Land
                  F                 C
To keep movin' me on - keep rollin' on
          G                                                   C
You gonna ease my mind, put me there on time and keep rollin' on

[Verse 5]
     C
I've told you baby from time to time
C
But you just wouldn't listen or pay me no mind 
               F                C
Now I'm movin' on - I'm rollin' on
       G                                                    C
You've broken your vow and it's all over now, so I'm movin' on
 
[Verse 6]
C
You've switched your engine now I ain't got time
C
For a triflin' woman on my main line
                  F                        C
'Cause I'm movin' on - you done your daddy wrong
  G                                                               C
I warned you twice now you can settle the price, cause I'm movin' on
 
[Break]

[Verse 7]
    C
But someday baby when you've had your play 
C
You're gonna want your daddy but your daddy will say
            F                        C
Keep movin' on - you stayed away too long
    G                                               C
I'm through with you too bad your blue, keep movin' on
