Slim Dusty Gotta Keep Moving Lyrics

Gotta keep movin' an' I'm feelin' good,
Got that diesel roarin' underneath the hood,
Hey the road is open an' I'm rollin' free, you see,
That I feel so good as long as I'm movin'
Yes I feel so good as long as I'm movin'.

Been rollin' down this road, seven days or so,
There's a thousand miles behind me, a couple more to
go,
Somewhere up ahead there's a woman all my own,
She'll see that plume of diesel smoke and I'm headin'
home there.

Gotta keep movin' an' I'm feelin' good,
Got that diesel roarin' underneath the hood,
Hey the road is open an' I'm rollin' free, you see,
That I feel so good as long as I'm movin'
Yes I feel so good as long as I'm movin'.

Now I'm the sort of man who could never stay still,
I've always kept on movin' guess I always will,
There's always one more trip and there's always one
more load,
There's always one more reason to keep me on the road. Gotta keep movin' an' I'm feelin' good,
Got that diesel roarin' underneath the hood,
And the road is open an' I'm rollin' free, you see,
That I feel so good as long as I'm movin'
Yes I feel so good as long as I'm movin'.

[Instrumental]

Sometimes I start to think this truckin' life's too
hard,
Blue lights and inspectors, you can never drop your
guard,
I'm a little over weight, done a few too many miles,
Then I hear that diesel roarin' and the whole thing
seems worthwhile.
Hey!

Gotta keep movin' an' I'm feelin' good,
Got that diesel roarin' underneath the hood,
And the roads are open an' I'm rollin' free, you see,
That I feel so good as long as I'm movin'
Yes I feel so good as long as I'm movin'
Yes I'm feelin' free as long as I'm movin
It's the only life for me now that I'm movin'
Yes I feel so good as long as I'm movin'[fade out]
