Movin' Down The Highway

Lyrics: Michael O'Neill
Music: Michael O'Neill

Recorded by Kingfish with a line-up that included Matthew Kelly and Dave Torbert but not Bob Weir or other earlier members..

Don't know why the [captains] are known as a rambling guy
I ain't nearly the win, but I'm sure gonna try
All the girls want me to settle down
But I was born to [dig] around
And the road is calling

Back in New York City, singing on the radio
Well they all like to boogie, they love that rock 'n' roll
New York City made me like a fun
But it's time to pack and run
I'm movin' on down the highway
With a guitar in my hand
Girl are you coming my way
Come on take my hand

I've been down to Texas with the [catholic counter] show
Well I'll be damned with that Mexican girl
Lone Star and there it goes
I'm a sucker for a country song
Well I never hang around too long
I'm moving on down the highway
With a guitar in my hand
Girl are you coming my way
Come on take my hand

I'm moving on down the highway
Girl are you coming my way, come on
Moving on down the highway
