I'm Movin' In Lyrics - Hank Snow

I'm headin' out on the rails that's been carryin' the mail 

That's been tellin' your troubles to me 

You told me a lie for every crosstie from Frisco to old Tennessee 

Nobody knew your little game everybody gave me the blame 

In the smoke and the fog of this old switchyard 

And that dreary whistle's farewell 

Bid the folks goodbye told 'em not to cry 

I'd only be gone for a spell 

I'm playin' in this game to win and when I find you I'm movin' in 

[ guitar ] 

Tried to make me believe I was the one that deceived 

That I drove you to the things you've done 

Said you loved me in vain and our old love train 

Had made it's final run 

And in your letter you said you were gonna be wed 

Your little joke was fine but that old bunch a line 

Didn't register with me 

So you'd better get loose from your other caboose 

And meet this old SP 

I'm speedin' in tonight you'd better treat your daddy right 

Better get on the ball I'm not aimin' to stall 

And those ramblers are runnin' on time 

So tell your new date that he'd better vacate 

Get out on the old main line 

I took it with a grin but baby now I'm movin' in 

[ fiddle ] 

That big loud bell id ringin' to tell that the station is comin' in sight 

As the cure we're roundin' my heart is poundin' 

With the thought of seein' you tonight 

It's been so doggone long you know you've done your daddy wrong
