"Moving Man" lyrics

"Moving Man"

Ooh, I been sleeping
One too many too long nights
I'm a ship that's meant to be sailing
I'm a hand, I gotta roll the dice

Ooh, I never thought a minute
Would be this hard to hold
Even though my papa told me
"Son, you look up and you're old"
Son, you look up and you're old

I was born to be a moving man
I can't sit still on my feet
Can't slow down, I don't touch the ground
I got a manic mouth to feed

Stubborn as well if you can't tell
I don't know when to claim defeat
I might never win, but I won't give in
So at least I won't get beat
Won't get beat

I've been going down early
Getting up with the sun
Grown fond of this way of living
Grown fond of the way it's done

Been thinking about the people
Long before my time
And what they'd think about me
So far down the line
So far down the line

I was born to be a moving man
I can't sit still on my feet
Can't slow down, I don't touch the ground
I got a manic mouth to feed

Stubborn as well if you can't tell
I don't know when to claim defeat
I might never win, but I won't give in
So at least I won't get beat
Won't get beat

I was born to be a moving man
I can't sit still on my feet
Can't slow down, I don't touch the ground
I got a manic mouth to feed

Stubborn as well if you can't tell
I don't know when to claim defeat
I might never win, but I won't give in
So at least I won't get beat
No, at least I won't get beat
No, at least I won't get beat
No, at least I won't get beat
No, at least I won't get beat
