Singing The Blues - Marty Robbins Lyrics - Classic Country

That big eight-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 

When we're movin' on, oh hear my song 

You had the laugh on me, so I've 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
