Im Movin On

(duet with Waylon Jennings)

[Verse 1] (Cash)
C
That big eight-wheeler rollin' down the track
 
Means your true lovin' daddy ain't comin' back
            F                C
I'm movin' on, I'll soon be gone
G
You were flyin' too high, for my little old sky
              C
So I'm movin' on
 
[Verse 2] (Jennings)
C
That big loud whistle as it blew and blew
 
Said hello to the southland, we're comin' to you
                  F               C
And we're movin' on, oh, hear my song
  G
You had the laugh on me, so I'm settin' you free
                C
So keep movin' on
 
[Chorus 1] (Both)
C
Mister fireman, won't you please listen to me
 
Cause I got a pretty mama in Tennessee
               F                C
Keep me movin' on, keep rollin' on
 G
So shovel the coal, let this rattler roll
             G
Keep movin' on
 
 
[Break]

[Verse 3] (Jennings)
C
Mister Engineer, take that throttle in hand
 
This rattler the fastest in the southern land
                F                 C
Keep movin' me on, keeps rollin' on
 G
You gonna ease my mind and put me there on time
                 C
And keep rolli' on
 
[Verse 4] (Cash)
C
I've told you baby, from time to time
 
But you just wouldn't listen or pay me no mind
               F               C
So I'm movin' on, I'm rollin' on
 G
You have broken your vow and it's all over now
                C
And I'm movin' on
 
{Chorus 2] (Both)
C
You've switched your engine and I ain't got time
 
For a triflin' woman on my main line
               F                        C
So I'm movin' on, you done your daddy wrong
 G
I warned you twice, now you can settle the price
                C
And keep movin' on
 
 
[Break]
 
C F C G C
 
[Chorus 3] (Both)
C
But someday, baby, when you've had your play
 
You're gonna want your daddy but your daddy will say
             F                       C
Keep movin' on, you stayed away too long
 G
I'm through with you, too bad you're blue
            C
Keep movin' on
