[Verse 1]
That big eight-wheeler rolling down the track
Means your true loving mama ain't coming back

[Chorus]
'Cause I'm moving on (Moving on)
I'll soon be gone (Soon be gone)
You were flying too high for my little old sky
So I'm moving on (Moving on)

[Verse 2]
That big loud whistle, it blew and blew
It said, "Hello Alabama, I'm coming through"

[Chorus]
'Cause I'm moving on (Moving on)
Oh, hear my song (Ooh, ooh)
You had the laugh on me and I'm setting you free
So I'm moving on (Moving on)

[Verse 3]
Mister engineer, take the throttle in hand
I got the rattler fastest in the southern land

[Chorus]
'Cause I'm moving on (Moving on)
Oh, I oughta roll on (Roll on, roll on)
You're gonna ease my mind so put me there on time
'Cause I'm moving on (Moving on)
[Bridge]
Oh, said I'm moving on (I got to move)
I got to roll on (I got to roll on)
I gotta move on (Yeah, I got to move)
Said I got to roll on (I got to roll on)
You're flying too high for my little old sky
That's why I'm moving on (Moving on)

[Verse 4]
You know I want you, baby, from time to time
But you just wouldn't listen, wouldn't pay me no mind

[Chorus]
That's why I'm moving on (Moving on)
Said I'm rolling on (Roll on, roll on)
Oh, you've broken your vow and it's all over now
And I'm moving on (Moving on)

[Verse 5]
And someday, baby, when you've had your play
You're gonna want your mama but your mama's gotta say

[Chorus]
You better move on (Moving on)
Ah, you know you got to roll on (Roll on, roll on)
I'm through with you and it's too bad you're blue
But I'm moving on (Moving on)
[Outro]
Well, I move (I got to move)
I got to roll on (I got to roll on)
I gotta go on (I got to move)
I got to roll on (I got to roll on)
Say, you're flying too high for my little old sky
That's why I'm moving on (Moving on)
Say it again, I roll on (I got to move)
I got to roll on (I got to roll on)
Yes, I'm moving (I got to move)
(I got to roll on)
