(C) - (F) - (G)
(C) How can you keep on moving
un (F) less you migrate (C) too
They tell ya to keep on moving
but (G) migrate, you must not do
The (C) only reason for moving
and the (F) reason why I (C) roam
To move to a new lo (G) cation
and find myself a (C) home

I can't go back to the homestead,
the shack no longer stands
They said I was uneeded,
had no claim to the land
They said, "Come on, get moving,
it's the only thing for you"
But how can you keep moving
unless you migrate too

Now if you pitch your little tent
along the broad highway
The Board of Sanitation says,
"Sorry, you can't stay"
Come on, come on, get moving
it's their everlasting cry
Can't stay, can't go back, can't migrate,
so where the hell am I

How can you keep on moving
unless you migrate too
They tell ya to keep on moving
but migrate, you must not do
The only reason for moving
and the reason why I roam
To move to a new location
and find myself a home
