Merle Haggard - Movin' On Lyrics

Running my old freightshaker classic jamming gears. Cranking this song.

Roy Nichols, one of the greatest guitar players of all time.

Nice see classic hits songs , coming back. Thank You. One my favorite song. All truck songs though years.

Merle had a great voice ..he needed more good song writers ..like the one that wrote this song

If you drive a big truck and think you know how to do it like a pro, then try driving a 1967 Autocar Heavy Hauler and see if you're really that good...

Who else here still watches the tv show

love the guitar work

This song wants me to go get in a big rig and start moving on

Love this show recently started watching it again gave me the bug im working on getting my cdl and when i turn 21 hopefully will be able to start driving some plus im hot on the trail for a w900a short would love to paint it up and spec it like sonnys rig

I just started watching the tv show that the song is for. Its already one of my favorites and after I graduate high school next year I’m going to a truck driving school so I could drive trucks for a living and I can’t wait

Boy the only advise I give you is that dont do it if youre into fir the money, you wont be glad. But if you like it the go for it. God bless you

And remember and im not a gear jammer yet but hopefully soon and the only way i know this much is cause i grew up in the industry but it aint what it used to be almost all the cowboys are gone but there are a few still hangin in there i know this cause of what alot of the old timers have taught me but i wish you luck brother

Get your CDL and drive local after 2 or 3 years.
Driving Tractor trailers will keep you out of trouble.
Buy a crucifix have it blessed by a traditional Catholic priest and place it in the Cab.
Best of luck.

Big wheels rollin', big wheels rollin', movin' on
Big wheels rollin', gotta keep 'em goin'
Big wheels rollin', movin' on.

The white line is a life line to a nation
And men like Will and Sonny make it move
Livin' like a gypsy always on the go
Doin' what they best know how to do.

Jammin' gears has got to be a fever
'Cause men become addicted to the grind
It takes a special breed to be a truck drivin' man
And a steady hand to pull that load behind.

Big wheels rollin', big wheels rollin', movin' on...
Big wheels rollin' ,gotta keep 'em goin'
Big wheels rollin', movin' on.

All night country music keeps 'em goin'
And Will and Sonny keep on movin' on
A good hot cup of coffee is waitin' up ahead
And the rhythm of the highway hums along.

Jammin' gears has got to be a fever
'Cause men become addicted to the grind
It takes a special breed to be a truck drivin' man
And a steady hand to pull that load behind.

Big wheels rollin', big wheels rollin', movin' on
Big wheels rollin' ,gotta keep 'em goin'
Big wheels rollin', movin' on...

I'd like an italian version of this TV serie but with the same song. ...😂😂😂wonderful!!!

The Movin' On TV show is now available on DVD from Amazon.com

🚛💨

Puts me in the seat

same here this show and song hit the core for me ..started in 75 and still doin it daily!!!!!!

I remember the tv show when I was 3years old...dam I'm old now..🚛

Jamming gears back than was a fever. Now trucks are dumb and have no stick. Just automated junk.

I'm in my 20s and run an old freight shaker classic with an 18 it ain't totally dead. But soon.

Rolled across I-10 west through west Texas listening to this one. R.I.P. Merle🇺🇸👍🏻

Do it like Pruitt

I just realized that I misspelled Mr Haggard’s First name.
I’m sorry sir.

Say 7 Lonesome Fugitive's and light a candle.
Go forth and sin no more,my son.

@doughesson Done ! I feel much better about it.

I love the TV show for this song.

If you like this, you'll like "diesel smoke" by Red Simpson

Just do it to it like Pruitt use to do it to it.

I love that saying.

My absolute favourite Mearle Haggard song

Yep! He had a slew of them, but this thing kicks!

The show was great, too!

@Seanzie_73 if you listen to the song it's almost like a truck that you hear coming along and then finally gets past you and goes on it's way.
I remember as a kid in upstate NY laying in bed at night and listening to the trucks out on the super slab.
MG, brings chills to me thinking about it after all of the years.

This is the song that put me in the driver's seat of an 18wheeler. Been doing now for 31 years. Thanks Merle.

I was almost there too when I was like 18 till my dad and I had it out... He wanted one of his kids to go to college.. To this day I wish I had went other route....
