 109 That big eight-wheeler, rollin' down the track

 120
 121 Mister fireman, won't you please listen to me
 122 'Cause I got a pretty mama in Tennessee
 123 Keep movin' me on, keep rollin' on
 124 So shovel the coal, let this rattler roll
 125 And keep movin' me on.
 126
 127 Mister Engineer, take that throttle in hand
 128 This rattler's the fastest in the southern land
 129 To deep movin' me on, keep rollin' on
 130 You gonna ease my mind, put me there on time
 131 And keep rollin' on.
 132
 133 I've told you baby, from time to time
 134 But you just wouldn't listen or pay me no mind
 135 Now I'm movin' on, I'm rollin' on
 136 You've broken your vow, and it's all over now
 137 So I'm movin' on.
 138
 139 You've swtched your engine, now I ain't got time
 140 For a triflin' woman on my main line
 141 Cause I'm movin on, you done your daddy wrong
 142 I warned you twice, now you can settle the price
 143 'Cause I'm movin on.
 144
 145 But someday baby, when you've had your play
 146 You're gonna want your daddy, but your daddy will say
 147 Keep movin' on, you stayed away too long
 148 I'm through with you, too bad you're blue
 149 Keep movin' on.
