"Moving On" lyrics

Moving On

Big wheels are rolling
Big wheels are rolling, moving on
Big wheels are rolling
Gotta keep them going
Big wheels are rolling, moving on

The white line is the lifeline to a nation
And men like Will and Sonny make it move
Living like a gypsy
Always on the go
Doing what they best know
How to do

Jamming gears has got to be a fever
Cause men become addicted to the grind
It takes a special breed
To be truck-driving man
And a steady hand
To pull that load behind

Big wheels are rolling
Big wheels are rolling, moving on
Big wheels are rolling
Gotta keep them going
Big wheels are rolling, moving on

All-night country music keeps them going
And Will and Sonny keep on moving on
A good hot cup of coffee
Is waiting up ahead
And the rhythm of the highway
Hums along

Jamming gears has got to be a fever
Cause men become addicted to the grind
It takes a special breed
To be truck-driving man
And a steady hand
To pull that load behind

Big wheels are rolling
Big wheels are rolling, moving on
Big wheels are rolling
Gotta keep them going
Big wheels are rolling, moving on

Big wheels are rolling
Big wheels are rolling, moving on
Big wheels are rolling
Gotta keep them going
Big wheels are rolling, moving on
