Lyrics

Keep On Moving

Lord, I gotta keep on moving

Lord, I gotta get on down

Lord, I gotta keep on moving

Where I can't be found

Law, they coming after me

I've been accused of a killing

Lord knows, I didn't do

For hanging me, they are willing

That's why I gotta get on through

Law, they coming after me

Lord, I gotta keep on moving

Lord, I gotta get on down

Lord, I gotta keep on moving

Where I can't be found

Law is coming after me

I've got two boys and a woman

They're just gonna suffer now

Lord forgive me for not going back

But I'll be there anyhow

I'll be there anyhow

Lord, I gotta keep on moving

Lord, I gotta get on down

Lord, I gotta keep on moving

Where I can't be found

Law is coming after me

Now maybe someday I'll find a piece of land

Somewhere not by or near anyone

Then I'll send for my love, love, love sweet woman

And my two grown up sons

My two grown up sons

Lord, I gotta keep on moving

Lord, I gotta get on down

Lord, I gotta keep on moving

Where I can't be found

Law is coming after me

Lord, I gotta keep on moving

Lord, I gotta get on down

Lord, I gotta keep on moving

Where I can't be found

Law is coming after me
