"That big eight-wheeler rollin' down the track 
Means your true-lovin' daddy ain't comin' back
'Cause I'm movin' on, I'll soon be gone
You were flyin' too high, for my little old sky
So I'm movin' on
That big loud whistle as it blew and blew
Said hello to the southland, we're comin' to you
When we're movin' on, oh hear my song
You had the laugh on me, so I've set you free
And I'm movin' on
Mister fireman won't you please listen to me
'Cause I got a pretty mama in Tennessee
Keep movin' me on, keep rollin' on
So shovel the coal, let this rattler roll
And keep movin' me on
I've told you baby, from time to time
But you just wouldn't listen or pay me no mind
Now I'm movin' on, I'm rollin' on
You've broken your vow, and it's all over now
So I'm movin' on
But someday baby when you've had your play
You're gonna want your daddy but your daddy will say
Keep movin' on, you stayed away too long
I'm through with you, too bad you're blue
Keep movin' on."
"I'm Movin' On," written by Hank Snow and covered by numerous artists including Emmylou Harris and the Rolling Stones. Dylan performed this song a handful of times in early 1993, shortly after he finalized his divorce with his second wife, Carolyn Dennis. Download one of these live performances, given in the Netherlands in February of 1993, at the link here. Or, try a very similar acoustic cover that opened Dylan's late 1992 shows, Muddy Waters' "I Can't Be Satisfied," a song which has essentially the same theme and message.
A cheerless, world-weary Dylan performs in mid-1992 at right.
