letra de movin' on down the river - jean ritchie

Loading...

i’m a-packin’ my grip
i’m a-movin’ on
for i’m a ramblin’ laddie
and if the boat don’t stop at the philadelphia dock
i’ll go on to cincinnati

i’m movin’ on
i’m a-movin’ on
for i can’t stay here forever
all the steam is a-risin’ and the big wheel’s a-turnin’
i’m a-movin’ on down the river

well, philadelphia is a fine old town
and so is cincinnati
the streets are lined with ten dollar bills
and the pretty little girls are plenty

so, i’m movin’ on
i’m a-movin’ on
for i can’t stay here forever
all the steam is a-risin’ and the big wheel’s a-turnin’
i’m a-movin’ on down the river

don’t choose a girl with a rovin’ eye
don’t choose the girl with money
but choose you the one with the truest heart
and kiss her and call her honey
and, i’m movin’ on
i’m a-movin’ on
for i can’t stay here forever
all the steam is a-risin’ and the big wheel’s a-turnin’
i’m a-movin’ on down the river

oh, i love that girl
she’s a dear little thing
but the tears they fall and blind me
for i can’t help but thinkin’ a-once in a while
about the girls i’ve left behind me

and, i’m movin’ on
i’m a-movin’ on
for i can’t stay here forever
all the steam is a-risin’ and the big wheel’s a-turnin’
i’m a-movin’ on down the river
