Lyrics

[Verse 1]
There's people on the highway
People in the towns
You just can't get away
I'm a going to the mountains
Going by the sea
You won't see me again
[Verse 2]
Gonna move on, buddy, leave my trouble and worry behind
Find a new home to rest my uneasy mind
[Verse 3]
For it's better to be going
Better to be moving
Than clinging to your past
Love is made from living
And dreams are made of sleeping
Better catch it while it lasts
[Verse 4]
Gonna move on, buddy, leave my trouble and worry behind
Find a new home to rest my uneasy mind
[Verse 5]
My sweet lady, she won't call
Or knock upon my door
She won't see me at all
And every word I've said
Everything I done
Will not turn her pretty head
[Verse 6]
Gonna move on, buddy, leave my trouble and worry behind
Find a new home to rest my uneasy mind
[Verse 7]
If I stay I'll lose out
For the dealer deals too fast
And the game's turned about
So I think I'll try a new game
One I understand
Then my life won't be in vain
[Verse 8]
Gonna move on, buddy, leave my trouble and worry behind
Find a new home to rest my uneasy mind
[Verse 9]
When you're feeling kind of blue
Kind of mixed up inside
And the good times are few
When every day brings the rain
In a never ending flood
And you're on your own again
[Verse 10]
Time to move on, buddy, leave your trouble and worry behind
Find a new home to rest your uneasy mind
[Verse 11]
And when it's hard to decide
What should be your next move
And what'd be the outcome
And when sunny days roll by
And pass you unnoticed
And time ceases to run
[Verse 12]
Better move on, buddy, leave your trouble and worry behind
Find a new home to rest your uneasy mind
