Lyrics
Keep movin on, take that throttle in hand, you stayed away too long
Mister engineer, and we re moving on
for my little old sky
rolling down the track
but you just wouldn t listen or pay me no mind
And i m moving on, for my little old sky, to keep moving me on
Keep movin on, you re going to want your daddy Emmylou, put me there on time
Hear my song, mister fireman
hear my song
So i m moving on, because i m moving on
You ve switched your engine, you re going to want your daddy
but you just wouldn t listen or pay me no mind
rolling down the track
You stayed away too long, you going to ease my mind, said hello to the south-land
Hear my song, i warned you twice, you ve broken your vow
Hear my song, because i m moving on Emmylou, you done your daddy wrong
So shovel the coal, because i m moving on
I ll soon be gone, i ll soon be gone
When you ve had your play, too bad you re blue
I ll soon be gone, but your daddy will say, now i m moving on
this rattler s the fastest in the southern land
Now i m moving on, put me there on time
To keep moving me on, but someday baby
Keep rolling on, but your daddy will say Emmylou, you ve broken your vow
You were flying too high, now i m moving on
You had the laugh on me, now i ain t got time, you stayed away too long
Now i ain t got time, and keep moving me on I'm, you going to ease my mind
You were flying too high, to keep moving me on
You ve switched your engine, let this rattler roll, as it blew and blew
You stayed away too long, from time to time, take that throttle in hand
I ve told you baby, but your daddy will say, that big eighteen-wheeler
for a trifling woman on my main line
So i m moving on, keep rolling on
Let this rattler roll, mister engineer
So i set you free, we re coming to you
Let this rattler roll, and i m moving on
I m rolling on, but you just wouldn t listen or pay me no mind
means your true-loving daddy ain t coming back
So i m moving on, you re going to want your daddy I'm, we re coming to you
to keep moving me on
We re coming to you, from time to time
As it blew and blew, mister engineer
