Mover
Composer(s): Earl Montgomery
Performer(s): Jimmy C. Newman



Don't leave the door unlocked tonight
'Cause I ain't comin' home
I've got the urge to hit the road
I've been here much too long

I've got nothin' in the world to lose
Everything's to gain
Travelin' is what I want to do
And the Mover is my name

So come here baby, kiss me goodbye
Let me be on my way
I want to be in Mexico
Tomorrow or next day

I've got a compass in my mind
Showin' me where to roam
So tell my friends when you see 'em
That the Mover said "So long"

Texas, Kansas, Idaho is a waitin' for me
Alabama, Georgia, Minnesota and Tennessee

Hand me my hat, hand me my coat
And my extra pair of shoes
Gonna ride as far as my money goes
Then I'll use my walkin' shoes

So dry your tears, show a smile
I don't wanna see you cry
And I don't wanna hurt you baby of mine
But the Mover says "Goodbye"

Texas, Kansas, Idaho is a waitin' for me
Alabama, Georgia, Minnesota and Tennessee
