Intro

I took a walk in the Texas rain,

 down Brentfield Lane

 just to see what I could find.

Memories flood like a crowded train

 where the tracks remain,

 But the people all have changed.

They say,

Oh my, gotta keep movin on.

Oh my, my, gotta keep movin on.

Oh my, gotta keep movin,

gotta keep movin

gotta keep movin on.

On Fifth and Main there's a big parade

where the children play

and take their youth for granted.

The people pass, and the very last

Stood on stilts with their stove-top hats

They sang,

Oh my, gotta keep movin on.

Oh my, my, gotta keep movin on.

Oh my, gotta keep movin,

gotta keep movin

gotta keep movin on.

Why not take me?

You could save me.

Why not take me?

What is this that makes us feel alone

What is this that makes us feel alone

What is this that makes us

You could save me.

I begin to run through the Texas rain

 I try to catch that train,

 But I can't forget you.

And I'm too old for a slow parade,

 I think it's time to go my own way.

Oh my, gotta keep movin on.

Oh my, my, gotta keep movin on.

Oh my, gotta keep movin,

gotta keep movin

gotta keep movin on.
