Merle Haggard
Movin’ On (1974)
Big wheel's rollin'; Big wheel's rollin', movin' on
Big wheel's rollin'; gotta keep 'em goin'
Big wheel's rollin', movin' on
The white line is a lifeline to the nation
And men like Kix and Ronnie make it move
Livin' like a gipsy, always on the go
Doin' what they best know how to do
Jammin' gears has got to be a fever
'Cos men become addicted to the grind. (The grind.)
It takes a special breed to be a truck drivin' man
And a steady hand to pull that load behind
Big wheel's rollin'; Big wheel's rollin', movin' on
Big wheel's rollin'; gotta keep 'em goin'
Big wheel's rollin', movin' on
Movin' on, yeah
All night country music keeps 'em goin'
Kix and Ronnie keep on movin' on
Hey, big hot cup of coffee, is waitin' up ahead
An' the rhythm of the highway hums along
Jammin' gears has got to be a fever
'Cos men become addicted to the grind
It takes a special breed to be a truck drivin' man
And a steady hand to pull that load behind
Big wheel's rollin'; Big wheel's rollin', movin' on
Big wheel's rollin'; gotta keep 'em goin'
Big wheel's rollin', movin' on
Yeah, oh you been drivin' all night long
Movin' on
Why don't you let me take the wheel for a while
What's that?
Hey, buddy, aren't you supposed to have your eyes open?
We're gone
To fade
