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 changed
They said:

"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."

Fifth and Main there's a big parade
Where the children play
Take their youth for granted
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

Begin to run through the Texas rain
Try'na catch that train
But I can't forget you
I'm too old for a slow parade
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

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
